Choral Chamber Ensemble
CHORAL CHAMBER ENSEMBLE: This is an auditioned ensemble of approximately 30 singers. This is a co-curricular class with expectations of participation outside of the school day. Throughout this course students are taught advanced music theory and college level classical music repertoire. Thorough understanding of vocal technique is expected. This course involves performance in all school choir concerts, performance of a major choral work in the winter, and participation in ISSMA solo and ensemble contest or other area concert choir competitions. There is a nominal costume rental fee for participation in the course.
Ensemble and solo activities are designed to develop elements of musicianship including, but not limited to, tone production, technical skills, intonation, music reading skills, listening skills, analyzing music, and studying historically significant styles of literature.
