SEIMA Project Delayed for Covid-19

The Southeastern Indiana Musicians Association has made the difficult decision to delay the SEIMA PROJECT (Inspiring Local Music ​ ) by one year. We truly appreciate all of the positive feedback we have received from individual Musicians, Schools, Churches, Private Instructors, Home School Students and Parents. We want to assure you that THE SEIMA PROJECT WILL TAKE PLACE. But we need to make adjustments to our plans and schedules. Our goal at this moment is to keep in contact with everyone. This includes all of you that have made contact with us already and those of you who still wish to participate.      

Our plan, at this time, is to begin making announcements about the schedule for Video Auditions in the Late Summer and Early Fall of this year (2020). These announcements will be in preparation for us to start receiving your Video Auditions in January of 2021. Be watching and listening to all Social Media including Radio and Community Functions starting then. Please remember that these Video Auditions will be for Instrumentalists and/or Vocalists who live in Dearborn, Franklin, Ohio, Ripley or Switzerland Counties in Indiana. We also want you to know, we have made an important change in the SEIMA PROJECT criteria. That change is to increase the “years of age” range by 1 year, making it 14 - 19 years of age for the auditions. It is important to us that no one is excluded due to the circumstances that have affected us all and everyone has an opportunity for the performances and cash award we are giving. We have had so much positive feedback from our community. The response has exceeded our expectations many times over. THANK YOU for your compliments and your involvement.      

To those Musicians who have already made contact to enter - ​WE WILL BE IN TOUCH​. We hope you will audition for our “​2021 SEIMA PROJECT​”. We will make every effort to reconnect with you and keep that helping hand out. For those of you who will be starting new, wanting to be one of our Contact Representatives, or are already a Contact. Please visit our website at ​www.seimusic.org​ and use our Email and phone number information below for questions, updates and more information.       We are truly excited about your interest in our SEIMA PROJECT. We can’t wait to launch it. Stay well and keep pursuing your passion for the art and performance of music.
