Honor Choir Festival

The Alabama Honor Choir is designed to give recognition to students of outstanding ability and initiative, provide the opportunity for these students to work with outstanding choral clinicians, and perform music representing the finest choral literature.  The Alabama Honor Choir Festival will be held in alternating (even-numbered) years in conjunction with the AMEA In-Service Conference. The Alabama Honor Choir will consist of students in grades 9-12 who are nominated by their school choral director and approved by a district screening process.

The next Honor Choir Festival will be held in 2028 during the AMEA Conference at the BJCC in Birmingham.

The 2028 Honor Choir format is TBD. Directors will register one or two balanced SATB quartets for participation in the ensemble. Instead of a screening process for this event, rehearsal tracks will be provided and directors will ensure that the students that they register will rehearse their music and come prepared to the festival.

Honor Choir Festival Registration

The Honor Choir registration and payment postmark deadline is TBD. Registrations will not be accepted after TBD. Payments postmarked after TBD will be charged a late fee. Contact Executive Secretary John Kincaid (execsecava@gmail.com) with any questions.
