There will be some after school rehearsals for this group in order to put together the music we will sing for the Dixie Classic Festival. Students will be able to access rehearsal tracks to learn their individual parts and WILL BE EXPECTED to have their part learned before the first rehearsal. Having individual parts learned ahead of time will allow us to have fewer after school rehearsals!
Repertoire:
Salmo 150 - Aguiar
Blow Blow Thou Winter Wind - Rutter
Little Innocent Lamb - Bartholomew
LGPE
Our Pre-LGPE concert will be Thursday, February 27. Call time for singers is 6:15 pm and the concert begins at 7 pm. Formal dress is expected for all singers.
Repertoire
Class B - Mixed (period 3 & 6):

Actual LGPE dates are March 11, 12 and 13. I anticipate we will sing on only one of those days but will not know when until approximately the end of February. Please keep all three days open from 7 am - 6 pm. I look forward to some gorgeous singing!
