...creating life-long lovers of music
The AMS Choral Department is designed to offer a variety of vocal performing opportunities for our students throughout the year which allows them to enjoy creating music as well as being musically, emotionally, and intellectually challenged. All choirs focus on students’ music reading skills and singing technique primarily through group singing. Team building and developing relationships within each choir and the department is an important aspect to our artistic medium. In addition to developing students’ musical strengths, students foster self-discipline, cooperation, and commitment as they work together to become life-long lovers of music!
