The View Of High School Music Festivals

By Wanda Vaughn


High school music festivals are the most entertaining activities that students can get involved in. They not only have fun during the event but also promote career development and talent growth. The idea came forth as a result of finding means of spending the free time with co curricular activities. This helps the students in nurturing their talent with the help of the teachers.

Performances staged have various cultural differences. They try to bring out the way of life of the society by having various type of music that covers various communities ranging from the contemporary to the classical societies. They performance starts at the basis to the national levels if they become the best. The nature of song and the energy and passion by the performers determines how far the group will go in the festivals.

During the presentations students showcase different cultures from different backgrounds. This enables them to sample different cultures and with help of the teachers and their mastery skills they are able to show the world what happens in communities and their cultures through music festivals. The traditional activities are brought to the world and people are able to celebrate them.

The best performances are given opportunity to be showcased in the presence of various dignitaries and even televised. This is a big venture for them as they get to be invited to perform in shows or other events. Also paid and this boosts their economic status as well as that of the school by creating a big name for them.

Students who take these festivals seriously finally end up taking it up as a career therefore sorting the problem of unemployment. This also acts as a source of income thus improving their living standards. Many people who take music seriously end up becoming renowned artists locally and internationally and can help in marketing their culture in other countries thereby attracting tourists who in turn will bring foreign exchange hence improving the economy of their country.

Many students get the opportunity to visit neighboring schools where they share ideas and make new friends. This gives them ample time to interact with them and also keeps them away from their class work which some may consider tiring and too much hence relaxing their minds and enjoy the benefits of these occasions.

Creativity goes a long way in the preparation especially if the song involves dancing. The dancing styles involved should be unique and the students should coordinate themselves in a way that there will be no mistakes. The songs which are recited without the dance should have proper words and avoid vulgar language that could lead to misunderstanding among the judges. The judges also ensure that they give their ruling on a fair judgment hence reducing biasness.

High school music festivals are helpful as them and teachers enjoy all the full benefits that come with these events. They benefit in improving their music skills as apply all the best things that they see others do on stage thus making their performances more appealing. These festivals also act as an entertainment factor as judges and crowds listening keenly go home fully entertained.
