The American Traditions Vocal Collection celebrates and preserves all styles of classic American music through music education, community events, concerts and an annual, professional vocal competition. The American Traditions Vocal Collection (ATC) is the world’s only professional vocal organization housing a competition focused on the equal appreciation of all classic styles of American music. As
a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization dedicated to preserving and celebrating these styles of music, we work with generations that already know these songs, and inspire a love of this music in newer generations, engaging audiences of all ages through educational experiences, concert experiences, and our namesake program: The American Traditions Vocal Competition. Our organization operates year-round to create and implement our educational offerings, while propelling students toward success in our major educational initiative, The Junior ATC, crafting world-class concerts featuring performers associated with the ATC, while sourcing and engaging celebrated performers of all genres to adjudicate our international, professional vocal competition.
