NCNATS is the North Carolina Chapter of the National
Association of Teachers of Singing, the largest
association of teachers of singing in the world (over 5,000
members), including choral and opera directors, composers,
private studio and school teachers, university and college
professors, researchers, journalists, and voice care professionals.
Part of the Mid-Atlantic Region of the national organization, which
also includes South Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, and Washington,
D.C., North Carolina member teachers encourage the highest standards
of singing through excellence in teaching and the promotion of vocal
education and research. Our goals include the professional
advancement of the talented and the enrichment of the general
public. We also encourage, conduct and stimulate effective
cooperation among voice teachers for our mutual welfare and
advancement and meet regularly for workshops and student auditions
and to enjoy the professional enrichment provided by our fellow
colleagues. Participation from schools and studios across the state
has continued to increase over the past several years, with over 700 auditions
scheduled at recent state-wide events.
