Savannah Rang, Junior in Music Media Production Bravo! Scholarship Fund recipient
“One of my favorite moments from my time at Ball State is my entire experience with the Choral Department. I have had such amazing opportunities through the program such as singing Carmina Burana at the Palladium, performing with the Chamber Choir for the past two semesters, and working with great faculty and fellow singers every day.”
Savannah was also the winner of the 2018 Spring Shout Songwriting Competition. As the winner, she spent part of her summer at the Popakademie International Summer Camp in Mannheim, Germany.
“The Spring Shout Competition was really fun! I am incredibly grateful to all the talented musicians who helped me perform my set, and those who came out to the show just to support; it really made a huge difference. My time in Germany was absolutely incredible. The unique blend of culture, music, and friendship that came out of just one week is an experience that I will never forget.”
