Harmony College Northwest 2010 is July 16-18. Registration begins February 15.

Welcome to the Harmony College Northwest website. Registration begins on February 15 for another terrific year of education for BHS and SAI members alike. Highlights of this year's weekend include incredible faculty members, plans for more singing, and NO TUITION INCREASES! Take a look through our site to see what the 2010 HCNW has in store for you!

Who should attend Harmony College Northwest?

INDIVIDUALS!
Students will find a wide selection of classes specifically chosen to meet their needs. Our faculty are experts in their areas and they are excited to be part of the 2010 team. After you register, you will receive information about how to access the music and learning tracks for our weekend song, "You're Just in Love," which was arranged by Tom Gentry for 8 parts. You'll have a kick singing it during the weekend.

CHORUSES!
Bring your whole chorus, and experience four incredible coaching sessions, plus you’ll all still have time to take some of the other terrific courses we offer. We suggest the "divide and conquer" method for those times when you don't have coaching: have your chorus members all take different classes, then compare notes and return to your regular rehearsal schedule with lots of tips and ideas. This is a coaching and class experience that will positively excite your chorus. Maximum: four small/medium choruses.

QUARTETS!
We have an exciting array of coaches ready to move your quartet to a higher level of artistry and performance quality. We will have quartet coaching available furing all sessions on Saturday...and even Sunday morning if you want to pack in one last session. If you want to step out for a session or two to sit in on one of the terrific classes we have on tap, that's not a problem. A maximum of 20 quartets can be accommodated, so DON'T DELAY!

DIRECTORS!
For you we have set a delectable buffet of courses to choose from, and you get to pick which courses in the “Directors Track” are right for you. If you want to hop over and take a course in the General Sessions, that’s okay too.

MUSICAL LEADERS!
Many opportunities abound for musical leaders. Take courses on how to be a section leader; how to get the most from your Music Team; how to be a coach. Fine-tune your musical ear with some of the vocal production classes, and of course, widen your network of other chapter leaders to ask questions and tap for solutions. 

SHOWMANSHIP & PRESENTATION LEADERS!
HCNW has numerous instructors lined up who will help you add expression to your singing and enhance the visual part of your package. By popular request, “Owning the Stage”, presented by Donya Metzger, will be repeated this year to help you find and tell the story in your song.
