Members of the Westminster College Men's Choir and the members of the Secondary Choral Methods class will serve as entertainers, teachers and mentors at the Mucho Macho Music festival Tuesday, Nov. 8, at the North Hills Junior High in Pittsburgh.
Over 115 boys from grades sixth through ninth representing 14 schools will be attending this one-day event. They will spend the day singing music together that is appropriate for boys in the vocal development years under the direction of O. David Deitz, from the Central Dauphin School District near Harrisburg.
"The Westminster Men's Choir will provide male leadership and serve as role models for the young men," said Dr. Robin Lind, director of choral activities at Westminster College and one of the coordinators of this festival.
The Westminster Men's Choir will perform for the middle school students, and then spend the day singing with them in an effort to entice the boys to continue singing into high school and beyond.
The members of the Secondary Choral Methods class will help with registration, observe the rehearsals, and attend the workshops that are provided for the choral directors.
