Congratulations to Encore of Carroll Senior High for being selected as a Quarterfinalist for the 16th season of the ICHSA! Quarterfinal 5 Members of Carroll Encore ICHSA (International Competition of High School Acapella) This season, competitors face the challenge of creating a 4-minute music video in lieu of a traditional competition set, all while maintaining appropriate social distancing measures. The difficulty of learning and performing music, and creating something vocally and visually artistic and appealing — without being able to come together in a traditional way — is considerable. And: all audio and video recording, mixing, and editing must be done by group members and their director — which means many are already working on acquiring these new skills. 2021 ICHSA Competition Structure All “events” — quarterfinals, semifinals, and finals — will take place virtually, as playlists of the groups’ competition videos. All quarterfinal playlists will be released Feb. 13; semifinals in all regions will drop March 13; and ICHSA Finals on April 17.
