Elementary Chorus (ages 5-8)
Elementary Chorus is a great way to learn and expand musical skills. During the course of the year students will learn to read music from the printed page, acquire music theory skills, and prepare for Winter and Spring concerts. The chorus will prepare a varied repertoire each semester to minister to our families and community and showcase their individual and collective talents.
We will endeavor to teach the musical and vocal skills necessary to produce a lifelong enjoyment of the creative arts. This includes teaching the fundamentals of proper choral technique (posture, breathing, diction, dynamic control, pitch control, rhythm, etc.) so that singers can sing properly. We desire to create a learning environment that is enjoyable and encouraging for all participants. This class will perform at both end of the semester concerts.
Student Requirements: Your own voice, a willing heart, Pencil, 1” black binder and plastic sleeves for music, concert dress (see Guidelines ).
Advanced Chorus, Glee Club, and Chamber Choir require an audition before registering for the class. Please contact the instructor at gracenoteschorus@gmail.com to schedule an audition.
