The Fountain Inn Phoenix Chorale is the top performing choir at FIHS. This ensemble, under the direction of Mrs. Sarah Wahl, is an auditioned mixed-ensemble group that performs at an advanced level. This group serves as one of our Varsity ensembles. This course is a supplementary experience for advanced chorus students with superior vocal talents. Students study a wide variety of music including: Renaissance, vocal jazz, contemporary and popular music, as well as traditional standard choral repertoire. They continue to practice proper tone quality production, music reading, sight-singing, ear training, and vocal flexibility as related to the style performed. In addition, students will also create and demonstrate choreography for selected repertoire. After school rehearsals and performances are part of the course and are considered an extension of the classroom. This group will participate in many state wide and out of state auditioned and competitive events. Students in this ensemble receive honors credit.  

Prerequisite: Chorus 1, Chorus 2, teacher recommendation, and a scheduled audition in the spring.
