NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS

SUBMISSION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JANUARY 28

The School of Music and the Opera Department would like to offer an open call for students at NIU to be part of a Stephen Sondheim Tribute.

Since the school is online the first week of school, it is asked that interested students submit a self-tape of at least 32 bars of a musical theatre song – Sondheim is encouraged but not required.

Please submit self-tapes to jwester@niu.edu. A.J. Wester is the Director of Opera in the School of Music and will make the determination as to participants. Deadline for submission is: January 28th. 

Rehearsals will be held Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. in the Recital Hall of the School of Music. Please submit any conflicts from February 1 through April 3. A rehearsal schedule will be given. You are required only at the rehearsals for which you are called (that’s why a conflict list is very important.)

The performances will be held April 1 and 3.  There is a tech week 6:30 p.m. -9:30 p.m. every night March 28-31.

Any questions, please contact A.J. Wester in the School of Music jwester@niu.edu
