Want to Sing in a High School Masterclass?
There is no pre-registration process to sing in masterclasses. Students can volunteer to sing at the beginning of each class or they can talk to schools at the Expo recruiting fair. Each individual presenter will select which students and how many students sing. If you are selected to perform in a class, please only sing in one class to allow other students opportunities to participate.
