Choir Spring Concert Info!
Dear Choir Parents,
Choir students have been working hard! We are preparing some new music and can't wait to share it with you! Here is information about our upcoming concert. A letter was sent home with students Friday 5/18 with this same info.
On Tuesday, June 12th at 8:15am, the 6th grade band and choir students will be performing in a concert during the school day! Please join us in the gym so that these talented 6th graders can show off all they have been working on. They have accomplished so much this year as first year band and choir students and we are all very excited to share our music with you! There is no special dress for this concert, students may come to school dressed as they normally would on any other school day.

Vocal Triad Concert
Dear Choir Parents,
Yesterday was the first time choir met since their Triad Concert. We had some great reflection and discussion about our performance. I thought they did an amazing job at this event. They were confident and flexible. Our soloists were amazing. This seems to have been a wonderful and inspiring experience for all of my choir students! I hope they continue with choir next year at Frost, or wherever they may be next year. There were several Webster alumni in the Frost choir. Mrs. Fisher (CHS's choir director) told me that one of her CAPA students is auditioning for a Broadway show this week in New York, and another choir student was just offered a $65,000 college scholarship to study music! Pretty impressive things are coming out of the choir program and I wanted to share that with you.
As we look forward in choir, you will start to hear some new music being practiced at home. Next we focus on a medley of American Folk Songs called "Red River Dances, and another tune called "I Believe"

Choir Audition Results for Only Hope
Dear Choir Students,
I told you in class that I would post audition results here after school. Nearly HALF of the choir had a very brief audition today for a small solo at our Triad concert. After hearing everyone sing, I had it narrowed down to some absolutely beautiful singing by: Hazel, Simone, Kaitlin, and Ahrianna. Boy this was a tough decision!!
The student who will sing the solo for Only Hope at our Triad concert next Tuesday is Kaitlin. Congrats Kaitlin!
Ahrianna will be our back up soloist, just in case.
Great job everyone who went for it today!!
Parents, you should be hearing your choir students singing at home as we get ready for our concert at Stevenson next week! A letter was sent home today with all the concert info.
Here is a great karaoke track to practice along with for Only Hope at home.
