Paul McQueen, Pat Singleton and Elmira Jimincz, at their last perforniancc during graduation. Right: Standing on a stool for a better view, choir leach:-r Ms. Davis uses facial expres- sions to get the stud:-nls involved in thi- music. CHOIR 44 Choir Back to basics A new teacher, new music, and a new approach to sing- ing greeted choir students this year. Ms. Vicki Davis' emphasis was on sight-reading. This is the first year out of twelve years that I have learned to sight- readf, choir president Marla Heinz said. The choirs started with the basic sight-reading book and advanced to contest music. Ms. Davis said that with the understanding of the basic concepts of music the choir would become stronger as the years progressed. She stressed that it was important to understand and feel each piece of music in your heart before it would reach perfection. I like the fulfillment you get when you finish a piece of music, and you know it was your bestf' freshman Robert Johnson said. This choir is more professional than any choir I've been in, and you get a lot more done, freshman Ricky Huerta said. Ms. Davis tried to keep spirits up with her optimistic approach. ills a fine day today, classes sang each day as a warm-up exercise. Junior Buster Johnson summed up most of the members' feelings, It's been a super year for a Super Choir.
