Congratulations to all of our students who competed in-person across two regions at the NATS Conferences this fall!
Core Program singers Michaela, Emma, Sarah, Kaitlyn, Elliott, Emersyn, Reese, and Ellie gave exceptional performances and each received awards and honors in their respective categories this year at the Central Region and Virginia NATS competitions.
The NATS student auditions give young singers the opportunity to perform for a panel of adjudicators and receive detailed written feedback. The in-person auditions feature masterclasses and performances for the singers to participate in after they compete.
Elliott competed in the Central Region competition in October and has qualified for the national rounds in both Musical Theatre and Commercial Music.
The other singers competed at the Virginia District in November and qualified at the state level to compete in the Mid-Atlantic Region Student Auditions in March.
We’re so proud of our singers who competed in the in-person NATS student auditions this fall. Their hard work these past few months paid off, and they all received honors and placements for their artistry and creativity on stage. We can’t wait to cheer them on at Regionals and National rounds!
