Falmouth Chorale Scholarship Open to Upper Cape Music Students

Falmouth Chorale invites applications for the 2010 Frederick Johnson Music Scholarship. As part of its mission to promote music and support talented young musicians in the Upper Cape area, in 2008 the Chorale initiated a Scholarship program for music students from the towns of Falmouth, Bourne, Mashpee, and Sandwich.  

This $1,000 award is named for Frederick Johnson, and honors the 17 years Mr. Johnson served as the Chorale director. The Scholarship is intended for graduates from the four Upper Cape High Schools and residents from the four towns who are pursuing a college degree in music and performance.

The Chorale considers this Scholarship a way to support the fine musical activities of the area and to aid young musicians in their academic careers. Patrons and friends of the Chorale are encouraged to contribute to the Scholarship fund and to share information about the scholarship with students.

High School seniors and college students may obtain an application for the Falmouth Chorale Frederick Johnson Music Scholarship from their High School Guidance Departments or they may call 774 392-2383 for additional information and applications. The deadline for submitting applications is April 15.
