PTO Pancake Breakfast-Saturday March 2nd

Vocal Assessments | March 4/5
1. All students currently enrolled in the HS Choral Program, with the exception of seniors,
must complete a vocal assessment. Vocal assessments are worth 25 point completion
grades.
2. During vocal assessments, students will be assessed on the following criteria:
- Ear Training (I will play a series of notes and have 1 student at a time sing the notes back to me)
- Sight-reading (this will done in small groups)
- Part Independence (only 1 person from each voice part will be represented at a time) - there are a few scenarios where I’ve called in more than one student on the same voice part in order to make sure we get through everyone in the same day. These students will not sing at the same time to make sure the process is fair for all involved.
- Women's Choir - Je le vous dirai! - mm. 1-22
- Men's Choir - The Vagabond mm. 44-61
- Bella Voce - Over the Rainbow mm. 21-36
- Chamber Choir - Ain'-a That Good News - First 2 pages
3. As we get closer to the date, I will send out a schedule for the exact time during each class period these will take place.
4. After the first round of assessments are completed, a call back list will be posted in
Google Classroom for those students being considered for our auditioned groups, which
are Chamber Choir, and Bella Voce
5. Callbacks will take place on Tuesday March 5th during each choir’s respective class
period.
- A portion of a song, in the style of what to expect in Chamber Choir/Bella Voce will be posted on Monday afternoon in Google Classroom for students to learn on their own. At callbacks, they will be asked to sing their part in small groups.
- Finally, a list of each group, Chamber & Bella Voce, will be posted on Friday 3/8 after school
6. Students can use the following websites to help prepare them for their
assessments - STUDENT RESOURCES
I know that this can be a stressful process but just a reminder to all students to do your best, as that's all that I can ever ask of you. You've got this!!
Please come see me if you have any questions.
Thanks!
