Scholarships
The Chorus has a deep commitment to promoting choral music among young singers. Each year the Chorus provides local high school students who have an interest in choral music with full-price scholarships to the Summer Music Camp at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. One of the awards each year is named in honor of Julia Landmark Foster, our beloved accompanist of 57 years, who has now retired. The recipient of the Julia Landmark Foster award has interest in both choral and piano literature. Our hope is to encourage these students to continue their interest in music, whether as a career or simply as an avocation.
