Congratulations to the following amateur singers that have advanced in the 13 to 20 year old division.

The judges said the competition was intense and it took them longer than anticipated to select the finalists.

The 13 to 20 year olds will be competing on Saturday, October 11th.

The event starts at 10:00 AM.

Doors open to the public at 9:30 AM.

Judges also said that if you weren’t selected, please continue to sing, continue to improve, continue to compete.

There is no substitute for practice-practice-practice.

After you practice, record yourself and listen critically to the playback and then start the cycle over:

practice-record-listen critically to the playback.

practice-record-listen critically to the playback.

practice-record-listen critically to the playback.

The competition was so close that when you were scored, many of you lost by only one point.

The judges decisions are final and all recordings have been deleted.

Good luck in Austin!
