Please note: this event is not open to the public unless you are part of the Fort Bend ISD music program.
This is a Youth Outreach project for the Tidelanders. We will be singing with 275 young men during the Central Zone Men’s Fest to demonstrate that men can and do continue to sing as adults.
We will participate in two sessions of the fifth annual Fort Bend ISD Men’s Choir Festival. November 9 at Elkins HS and November 16 at Austin HS. Students display their talent and dedication to choral music of more than 600 students.
The festival will be held over three nights in different locations across the District, and all community members are invited to attend. Each concert will include middle and high school students from the associated zone. Each program will include a number of classical and modern selections and will end with a “Tribute to the Armed Services” to honor those who have served in the United States Armed Forces.
