6th Grade Treble Choir
Course Description
6th Grade Choir is an ensemble-based course in which students work together as a team to develop their vocal skills. Choir members will work on proper vocal technique, rehearsal skills, and will learn a well-rounded background in music fundamentals. Each student will develop independent singing and reading skills to attain a high level of musicianship and confidence. Students will explore a variety of styles of music, including world music, art songs, contemporary music, and pop music. There will be several opportunities for performances each year.

Concerts
Choir is not only an academic subject, but also a performing ensemble. The work we do culminates in 2 concerts where students showcase what they have been learning and practicing. Therefore, concerts are a required part of the choir curriculum. Students must arrive at their concert venue one hour before their concert begins for a combined rehearsal with other classes.
