“The exciting thing about Les Chanteuses is that we all work together for a common goal.” Marcella Mas, junior Choir Director Bart Ev- ans devoted a great deal of time to developing proper vocal technique as a means of producing purer, more pleasing sounds. Of course, another important part of singing was the perfor- mance. Two show groups. Da Capo and Showstoppers, placed special emphasis on Hold it! We know what you’re thinking-you think chorus is a great class just because it gives you an op- portunity to finish up on that last-minute homework, RIGHT? But wait a minute there - that isn’t the reason choir is great at all. It’s great because: “In Concert Choir we don’t just work on develop- ing technique; group perfor- mance and personal growth are just as important.” Jon Summerfield, sophomore “Being in Showstoppers is a good experience be- cause you work as a unit, instead of as fifty separate individuals.” Jennifer Hunt, soph- omore performing. Da Capo, the premier group, sang vocal jazz pieces as well as madri- gals. Showstoppers had a wide repertoire which in- cluded tunes from popular musicals. The largest group, Chorale, focused on classic, “Art” music. Two choirs for less experienced students were Les Chanteuses and Concert Choir. With such a wide variety of choirs, designed to fill ev- ery imaginable need, any student could get a piece of the on stage action. Chorale students sing in cir- cular formation to create a harmonious blend of sound. rograms romote articipation 90 Chorus
