CoroRio has been invited to participate in a high school choral festival and give a collaboration tour performance in London in March 2025!
We are incredibly excited to be opening this performance opportunity to any CoroRio student who will be in the 9th-12th grades in the 2024-2025 school year. If you have been a part of CoroRio for the past four to five years, you know that out of state and international tours are one of the ways we seek to provide our students with quality musical experiences. We have not traveled since 2019 and we couldn’t think of a better tour to get started again with than this one – Dr. Glass is one of CoroRio’s inaugural conductors, conducting CoroFuente back when Reese and Joelle Norris first founded the MidSouth Music Institute.
In addition to participating in the choral festival, CoroRio singers will also be participating in a collaboration concert with a UK based community choir similar to our own. More details will be available as we make travel commitments, but we are incredibly excited to show our students how the connections we make in music truly do extend beyond borders and cultures.
While only high school aged singers will be able to perform, all CoroRio family members are welcomed to travel with us. Below is a travel proposal for March 9-16, 2025* (this is the DeSoto County Schools Spring Break). You’ll find a cost for a performer as well as a cost for a non-performer. International travel can be an investment; our Board of Directors have reviewed this proposal and are excited for this opportunity. We believe the investment is well worth it, and in many cases very economical for large group travel. Please carefully consider if you and your family would like to participate in this trip and fill out the Google Form so that we can prepare to set up deposits and travel details.
