Montgomery Madrigals Travel to Canada

The Montgomery HS Madrigal Choir just returned from their first international trip to Canada. They were selected to perform at the Pro Musica International Choral Festival in Kingston, Ontario.

The Pro Musica International Choral Festival is an educational initiative of Albany Pro Musica, offered in partnership with Queen’s University. The event brings together 150 talented young singers from across the United States and Canada for a week-long choral institute at the Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts. Throughout the week, students participated in rehearsals with the Festival’s guest composer and conductor Dr. Rollo Dilworth, as well as workshops, seminars, and vocal clinics with a world-renowned faculty.

“Participating in the Pro Musica Festival was a wonderful opportunity for the Madrigals,” Director Heather Orr said.  “In addition to learning and performing under the direction of outstanding music educators, they also shared their love of music with students from other parts of the world. They represented MISD well. We are grateful to our sponsors who made this once-in-a-lifetime experience possible for our students.”
