The quality of music-making here at South Dakota Mines is evident in the 300 students in our music program. Faculty here at the Music Center continually strive to give our students the best musical experience possible. This year our South Dakota Mines Concert Choir is honored to have been invited to perform in the festival choir at the 2025 Salzburg International Choral Festival. During this trip, we will have several opportunities to perform and share our music with European audiences in Vienna and Salzburg. Our choir students will be able to immerse themselves in the Austrian culture. We have been working hard to raise funds and will continue fundraising through October 2025. We certainly can't achieve this without your generous support of our students. We would love any additional support you can offer us to help us reach our goal of making sure that we leave no student behind. Your support will ensure that each of the 36 choir students in the concert choir will experience the trip of a lifetime! The cost for one student to attend is a little over $5,800. This includes flights, hotels, meals, transportation, and excursions.
Your generosity and financial gift will go towards:
- Accommodation
- Air travel
- Ground travel
- Meals
Our students are funding this trip themselves. Any funds raised will go towards the trip and help offset the costs.
