We want to make sure you are aware of important changes that took place this week at How Sweet the Sound, since these changes impact our hundreds of choirs already signed up and many more that will now have the opportunity to register.
Because we cannot post songs on the website for which we do not own the licensing rights, we will be unable to have an online voting period in the competition. This change also means that choirs may perform any song of their choice in Round 1.
We’re happy to let you know that now the submission period will be re-opened to allow new choirs to enter, or existing participants to revise their current submission. We feel this makes How Sweet the Sound truly a celebration of a wide spectrum of church music.
So, our registration now closes on July 30, 2009, and following this, our judging panel will review all submitted videos, and based on the scores, four choirs from each of our two categories will advance to the regional performances.
Thanks to all involved for being a part of the celebration. To begin or revise your registration, click here.
