About MusicFest
MusicFest is HSPVA’s longest running tradition! Originally called Spaghetti Supper, this event began 52 years ago as a potluck celebration and fundraiser featuring every HSPVA music ensemble. Across the decades, the Supper grew and evolved to accommodate the growing HSPVA community. The name MusicFest was adopted from another HSPVA benefit concert tradition that also began in the 1970s. Combined into one unique legacy, all HSPVA music alumni share the common experience of performing in this event!
