Prerequisite: No audition required, but course is meant for 1^st Semester Tenor/Bass and Soprano/Alto Choir Students

Second-Semester Only

The Mixed Chorus is an open-enrollment prep choir that begins at second semester. The Soprano/Alto and Tenor/Bass choirs combine at the second semester to form this class for the purpose of preparing the voice for more advanced choirs. Students who sang with the Soprano/Alto and Tenor/Bass choir during the first semester continue to sing in this chorus, but the mixed chorus is open to new students as well. However, new students need to meet with Mr. Mendenhall for a screening, prior to registration for this class at second semester. The chorus focuses on matching pitch, reading music, part-singing, music fundamentals, stage presence, and basic performance skills while covering the concepts within the State Core Curriculum for Music.
