Help THE AMERICAN PRIZE, receive an ODE to JOY keepsake!

Since 2012, The American Prize National Nonprofit Competitions in the Performing Arts, administered by Hat City Music Theater, Inc, has helped the CBASO and CBA Chorus to select exceptional professional vocal soloists to perform with the ensembles each season.

TAP, which CBASO founding music director David Katz serves as Chief Judge, advertises the opportunity to singers nationwide through its website and extensive data base of professional vocalists and teachers of singing; TAP collects and collates resumes as they arrive and registers candidates for Maestro Katz to audition.

Hat City Music Theater Inc. and The American Prize do not charge the CBA for this service, but that doesn't mean it costs nothing. Scores of administrative hours are spent on the task each year.

Would you help The American Prize continue to assist us with this important work, which has brought such wonderful singers to perform with us—and is about to aid in selecting our Beethoven soloists?

Would you be generous by giving a gift of any amount to Hat City Music Theater, the 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that administers The American Prize?

Give $50 or more and receive an exclusive "ODE to JOY" mug in thanks for your help. Give $100 or more and receive two. Give $150 and receive a numbered, signed copy of "MUSE of FIRE" Maestro Katz's acclaimed one-man play about the art of conducting, to be published in 2019. Give $200 and receive the book and the mugs...
