Rising Talents of Atlanta (RTA) is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to advancing the education and performing experience of talented high school vocalists. Students will be selected through an audition process to participate in our program. Selected candidates will learn about the music and entertainment business from industry professionals. In addition, our students will participate in the process of arranging and performing two songs from among a variety of today’s popular music genres. Industry professionals will coach our students in all aspects of the presentation of each of their two selected songs.
Our idea of entertainment calls for the audience to be engaged, turned on, fired up, and delivering massive doses of loving energy to the performers. There are no minor roles or bit parts in this show; on this night, every performer will be a star!
Featuring - You…. As Yourself!
In the intimacy of traditional cabaret, skilled performers don’t just sing songs. They employ other techniques such as story telling, or giving glimpses of their life and experiences in ways which share their “human side” with the audience. It’s called connection. So too with RTA performers. Each will introduce their own music and in a variety of other ways develop the skill of connecting with their audience on a personal level.
Scholarships & Grants
Every one of our students will receive scholarship money. The evening’s performances will also be judged by a panel of music and entertainment professionals, and the top three performers will receive greater monetary rewards.
Voila! Wonderful talent, great music, student education and financial reward - all happily combined to create a brand-new annual Atlanta entertainment event!
