For anyone looking to work in a profession involving music, it's important to become more self-reliant as a member of an ensemble. The higher you go in the field, the less often you'll have someone who will teach you notes or make practice guides for you. Choir class is a place where students can start to focus on those skills specific to music learning, so that it will help them to take ownership of their music and build confidence in their ensemble singing both now and in the future.

The Spring session will include a small performance as part of our annual vocal recital.
