Chorus and Meister’s

CHORUS

CHORUS is an elective open to all students in grades 9 through 12.  The objective is to teach music reading skills, aural skills, vocal techniques and performance skills necessary to develop a well-balanced choral ensemble.  The student will acquire performance practice skills appropriate to the style period of the literature being performed.  

MEISTER’S

MEISTERSINGERS is a full year, credit class that is an advanced chorus offered at the high school level.  Students who successfully audition for this group will be challenged in their musicianship by more difficult literature and expectations.  Music literacy, ear training, history, and vocal technique are heavily emphasized in this class and students are making a commitment in this course to achieve very high standards of music performance.  A significant part of this course is the performance schedule outside of school time.  Students who successfully audition for this course will be expected to make all performances in the calendar year.

***All students at time of course selection will register for CHORUS.  Audition letters/materials will be available to all students who registered for CHORUS by May 1st and the blind audition will be done before Memorial Day.
