Choral music is a beautiful and diverse art form. Working together on learning and performing this variety of literature makes for a more well rounded and enriched person.

A music rehearsal is a perfect form of education: There is a constant back and forth between teacher and students, constant questions and answers, and students serving as evaluators of self and group.

A music rehearsal preparing for a concert is the model of teamwork and collaboration: The "success" of the "group project" is up to contributions and efforts of every member. We work together as a team toward a common goal. Many, if not most, members will engage in this kind of project-based collaboration in their futures beyond school.

Socially, students can easily form bonds as they work together on their common goal. Discussions, jokes, insights, and personalities end up being shared freely and friendships form as a constant "secondary activity" while we learn new music and new skills.

A Place to Pursue Your Strength. Everyone's good at something - at many things. For those students for whom singing and/or performing is their strength, a hierarchy of auditioned choir experiences are available to provide increased depth and complexity.

A Place for Everyone. Even if music is not "your thing," or you are curious to try but have no idea if you even have any decent skills - The joy comes from discovering, trying, and growing - and doing that together with others.
