Chicago Chapter NATS

What an amazing weekend filled with amazing singing! We are so proud of our Chicago chapter community of singers and teachers. We are so grateful to you all for participating - and so grateful for our sponsors for keeping us fed, educated and having prize money for all of our categories!

Registration closes tomorrow, March 18! Don’t miss out on the best event of the year!

Join us for the CCNATS “Be an Expert with Accompanists!” Workshop!

When: Sunday March 22nd, 2:00pm - 4:30pm
Where: North Park University
�In this workshop, students and teachers will have an opportunity to hear from a panel of expert accompanists. They’ll share their tips for students on how to navigate an audition, rehearsal or performance with a new and unknown accompanist with ease and professionalism. We’ll discuss tips for preparing material and music, communicating requests and tempos and other suggestions to allow singers to feel confident and relaxed. After the panel, singers will be given a 10 minute rehearsal slot with an accompanist where they can practice these skills and receive feedback and mentoring.

This workshop is not to be missed, especially for singers preparing for our CCNATS Student Auditions who do not have much experience working with live pianists.

Fees:
CCNATS Member Teachers - FREE
Parent Guardians - FREE
Students Observing the Panel Only - $10
Students Observing the Panel and Participating in the Rehearsal Slots - $35
