| Hello from St. George!
New students bring new excitement to campus. The Music Department is experiencing this now. Practice rooms are busy midterm performances are all around us.

|
With the beautiful weather of St. George many times a practice room doesn't seem like the best option. November rehearsals out in the warm sunshine of Utah's Dixie!
Auditions for admission and scholarships for the 2010-2011 school year will be held on January 29, 2010 and February 26, 2010.
