American "Classical" Idol


The Rochester Oratorio Society is presenting its’ 4th annual Classical Idol competition on Saturday, March 27. It will be held at the Hochstein School of Music and Dance on N. Plymouth at 7:30 p.m. This competition features competitors from all over the US as well as several local singers. The caliber of singers that it attracts is astounding. Twenty four are invited to Rochester for a preliminary round on Friday night and the 12 best of those will be chosen by a panel of distinguished judges to sing for you on Saturday! Your participation is also required as there is an “audience favorite” category with a cash prize. This evening is so much fun and a chance to see really amazingly talented folks. It is the major fundraiser for the Rochester Oratorio Society so the low, low, ticket price of $30 (or $15 for students) is even more astonishing. If you need more information, call Rochester Oratorio Society member Karen Franz at ext. 2359 or you can go to: <"https://www.rosclassicalidol.org">
