CCCG Scholarship Program

PURPOSE
The Covington/Conyers Choral Guild is pleased to offer a scholarship program for the 2020 graduates of Newton and Rockdale County public schools, private schools, and homeschools.
 
There are two separate scholarships to be awarded of up to $1,000 based on the student’s academic and artistic achievements, teacher recommendations, and financial need.
 
  1. The CCCG Music Scholarship is offered to students who plan to pursue a voice-related music degree. An application is required along with an interview and live audition. Applicants must prepare two selections from standard vocal literature (art songs, arias, musical theater, solo concert pieces, etc.) in contrasting styles to perform by memory, with one piece performed in English and one in a foreign language. You must provide your own accompanist and bring five complete sets of music for the audition panel.
  2. The Joni B. Jones Memorial Scholarship was established in memory of our accompanist of 30 years by her husband, Mark Jones. It is offered to students entering a program for music education. An application is required along with an interview and an essay on “The Importance of Music Education in Today’s Society.” No audition is required.

All applicants must provide proof of residency in Newton County or Rockdale County, and furnish a recent photo that we may use for publicity in the event you are selected as a recipient. Interviews and auditions will be held at the Choral Guild office in Conyers. You will receive a phone call to confirm receipt of your application.
