Talented amateur musicians and professional instructor-performers will descend on the Sea to Sky Corridor for the 14th Howe Sound Music Festival for eight days starting Sunday (April 6).

The annual celebration of young corridor performing artists, many of whom have gone on to pursue careers in the field, will include an elementary school choral workshop featuring students from all six of Squamish鈥檚 grade schools, led by clinician Sandra Meister.

An adult choral festival and adjudicated vocal and piano competitions are key parts of the festival. As well, the opening and closing concerts will feature talented musicians who will also adjudicate during the festival.
