We are now accepting applications for the 2019 George Shirley Vocal Competition (May 17-19)! We invite singers of all races and ethnicities to dive into the richness of African American classical repertoire in all its forms, including spirituals, art songs, and opera arias. In our effort to continue this genre of music, we also encourage African American composers to submit their vocal works for our composition prize. The applications for the 2019 competition are due March 15, 2019. Apply Now!
