WSMA High School State Honors Concerts
media release: Wisconsin School Music Association (WSMA) State Honors Music Project provides musically accomplished youth the opportunity to rehearse and perform with the nation's finest conductors in a professional and highly disciplined setting.
High School State Honors students attend an intensive four-day summer camp with the conductor of their ensemble. In addition, 32 of Wisconsin's finest music teachers volunteer time as section coaches, coordinators and administrators during the June summer camp and at these October concerts. Working together, they engaged in holistic lessons that incorporated several aspects of the programmed repertoire far beyond the musical such as history, theory, style, composition, text and culture.
Join us for the culminating performances in Madison, WI that take place in conjunction with the 2024 Wisconsin State Music Conference.
