All choirs are designed to teach
the following aspects of music: vocal technique, musicianship(reading
music), general music history, basic components of the choral genre,
the components of ensemble singing, and the principles of rehearsal
and performance in a choral setting. These various components are
evaluated through the grading process (except in the case of Madrigal
Ensemble). Placement in a choir is based primarily on level of musicianship
skills. |
