The purpose of the Michigan Music Conference is to provide an annual in-service opportunity for the professional development of Michigan music educators and to serve as a coordinating body for collaborative, inter-association initiatives in support of school music in Michigan.

We have reimagined what choral hours might look like for 2022. We are seeking groups that will continue to showcase excellence. You can of course still submit recordings of traditional choral ensembles or specialized choral ensembles. But in addition, we are opening up the opportunity for featuring a multitude of other performance styles: For example, an outstanding quartet, a show stopping musical theatre number, a video project that interacts with live singing, or a “Joe Miller inspired” creative program. This could also be a chance to collaborate with another colleague or maybe with a collegiate ensemble. These are only a sampling of ideas we hope to be programming, but by no means the limit.

Let your creativity thrive!

Plans for the 2023 Michigan Music Conference are well underway, and the MMC Planning Committee hopes to reestablish our MSVMA Choral Hour!  We want to encourage directors to apply and prepare for this showcase event in our community. Applications and recordings must be received by Friday, May 20th to be considered.
