Welcome!

Alaska A Cappella U (AAU) is celebrating 13 years of introducing a cappella music to high school and middle school students! The workshop provides a day for them to explore the joy of four-part a cappella harmony, with a grand finale performance by the AAU chorus on the Alaska Sound Celebration Chorus Fall Show. The two choruses blending their voices together creates a thrilling finale!
