Chorale is our auditioned, mixed ensemble, and is open primarily to juniors and seniors singers who demonstrate advanced vocal technique and music reading skills (underclassmen will be considered on a case by case basis with director approval). Chorale will perform throughout the year at school concerts, festivals, and contests. Some outside of class time (including occasional evening rehearsals) will be required. This course is designed for students who are capable of singing more challenging music.
Prerequisites: Previous singing experience in a choral ensemble and audition/approval of the instructor are required. Underclassmen should have sang in Concert Choir and/or Advanced Treble (or be concurrently enrolled), unless having been permitted by the director.
