Starting next fall, there will be two one-year choral scholarships: one for a man (tenor or bass), and one for a woman (soprano or alto). The scholarship will consist of $4,500 in tuition reduction and $1,500 toward voice lessons throughout the year.
The recipient is expected to attend sectional and full rehearsals throughout the year, sing at the Sunday Mass, the First Friday Holy Hour, help out at weekday Masses, sing in the Palestrina chamber choir and perform other duties that will be discussed at the interview.
Students will need to submit an audition video of one piece by March 1, 2018 and, if selected, will come to campus as a finalist to audition in person on Saturday, April 7.
