From Mrs. Leonhard's Classroom
The Flambeau Choral Department participated in the annual Wisconsin School Music Association (WSMA) sanctioned District Solo & Ensemble on March 7 and 24. WSMA Festivals were designed to:
- Improve students’ music performance through assessment
- Increase students’ understanding of music literature and music concepts
- Motivate students to continue the study of music
- Establish standards of excellence in music performance
- Provide opportunities for students to understand the relationship of music experiences to other life experiences
Over eighty Flambeau Choral students in grades 6-12 accomplished the above targets!
In Class C, eighteen events were registered. Thirteen received firsts and five received seconds. In Class B, twenty-four events were registered and eight received firsts and sixteen received seconds. In Class A, twenty-four events were registered and nineteen will advance to state and five received firsts. In the large ensembles, Junior High Show Choir received a first in Class C and Sound Dimension received a starred first in Class A and is moving on to state! An outstanding showing for not only the Choral Department but for the Flambeau School District!
