The Oklahoma Baptist University All-State Choir Camp is open to all High School Students (including rising freshmen). The primary focus of the camp is preparation for upcoming Oklahoma All-State Choir auditions. Students will receive expert instruction from Dr. Joshua Chism (OBU Director of Choral Activities), Dr. Steve Sims (Professor of Voice), and area high school expert choir teachers with decades of experience. The camp culminates with a student concert that celebrates the day’s learning. Students of all ability levels will find appropriate challenges within a positive and nurturing environment.
