The National Festival of the States offers a memorable musical, cultural and educational experience to select performing groups. In conjunction with the National Park Service, the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association, and the U.S. Navy Memorial, Music Celebrations organizes concert tours and performances in Washington, D.C., the nation's capital. In 2009, performances in Washington, D.C. will commemorate the bicentennial of Abraham Lincoln, America’s greatest President.
The National Festival of the States will feature performing groups from each of the 50 States in Washington, DC. Performing groups are selected on the basis of recommendation from state and national music educators, governors, senators, congressional representatives, and/or by audition. The festival is designed to showcase at least one choral and one instrumental (string, wind or both) performing ensemble from each State.
Selected groups perform in three prestigious venues chosen to best demonstrate the quality of the group and ensure appreciative audiences.
What better setting or location for this than Washington, DC? It features the greatest monuments, institutions of government, museums, and historical documents in the country. Washington is not only a city of history, but the living, vibrant center of our national life.
Please contact us if you would like more specific information regarding venues, suggested itineraries, festival features, concert tour inclusions and more. Early registration is recommended, as the availability and selection of performance venues depends upon dates, time of group's registration, size, physical and technical requirements of the selected performing groups. Great effort is made to match performing groups to appropriate venues with maximum audience potential.
