NMACDA Youth All-State Festival

Event categories: participation optional, auditioned, $

The Youth All-State Festival is presented by the New Mexico American Choral Director's Association (NMACDA). It is an opportunity for young singers to perform challenging music in a highly selective ensemble. Being selected to participate in All-State is a huge honor.

There are two Youth All- State Choirs. The Elementary All-State Choir is made up of students in grades 4-6. The Youth All-State Choir is made up of students in grades 7-9.

This event is often confused with the State Choir Contest. The State Choir Contest is a competition. All-State is an intensive educational weekend for choir students from across the state. ​

​This event has been canceled for the 2020/2021 school year, because of the pandemic.
Event Logistics
The Youth All-State Festival usually takes place at the Las Cruces Convention Center in late January. Those selected will have a registration, transportation, and rooming fee of approximately $250.

This year's event has been moved to early May 2021 because of the pandemic. Student auditions will be due in early February. In addition, the event will be held in Albuquerque at Hoffmantown Church. 
(More information coming soon!)

Auditioning
Audition requirements. There is no fee to audition, however interested students must submit an audition video recording featuring their performance of the following:

  • “My Country ‘Tis of Thee” a cappella.
  • Annually assigned audition piece.

**Please note: All choir students will record an All-State audition solo for a class grade.​**
