    Country Blues singer Ronnie Milsap, World-Renowned Operatic Soprano Kallen Esperian and Broadway's Shrek the Musical star Sutton Foster join artistic director/festival founder Martha Wright, conductor Stephen Hatfield and orchestra with some of the top children's choirs in concert at the Opry House for breathtaking performances.

    Crossroads Childrens Chorus Festival, an international classical chorus festival held in America's Music City, gives a spectacular opportunity for treble choirs to meet and perform with celebrity vocalists and professional clinicians to develop musicianship as the explore the common roots of various music genres. With built-in fun activities, sophisticated musical instruction and performances, the CCCF will provide once in a lifetime opportunities to its participants.

    Ronnie Milsap ranks as the pre-eminent country soul singer of his generation, a humble, overtly friendly fellow with a talent as vast and multi-dimensional as the American South. Milsap provided country music with one of its most important voices as the genre was moving beyond its rural roots into the mainstream of modern entertainment. Steeped in the mountain music of the North Carolina hills and schooled in classical piano, Milsap early in life found inspiration in a wide variety of music. Those earthy sounds about life and love provided a young, impoverished blind boy with a connection to a world beyond the harsh reality of his daily existence.
