l Choir Ranks The vocal music program at Cholla con- sisted of five choirs - Beginning Boys Choir, Beginning Girls Choir, Concert Choir, Chol- laires Ensemble, and Intermediate Chorus - a new choir this past year at Cholla. The T65 choir students at Cholla were busy through- out the year singing for various events and performances. These included a perfor- mance with the Philharmonic Orchestra of Tucson, two concerts at the San Xavier Mis- sion, a Spring Concert, Beginning Choir and All-City Choral Festivals, 3 performances of UWest Side Story, and the Chollaires Showcase. Cholla singers earned 8 superior and 6 excellent ratings in the AIA Solo-En- semble festival, and placed TO singers in the South Central Regional Choir, the most ever at Cholla. Enthusiasm for singing and per- forming was high all year, as the students consistently improved under the direction of Mr. Williamson. With the good quality of voices and attitudes displayed in the Begin- ning, Intermediate, and Concert Choirs, the future ofthe vocal music program at Cholla High School is very bright. Due to the rebuilding year in the vocal music program, the Chollaires were a small- er group numbering about 14. The member- ship also fluctuated a lot because of students learning due to class conflicts and other rea- sons. But even with complications like these, the Chollaires still put in much hard work and gave many fine performances. Some of the outstanding students in the group were: Glenn Parks, Veronica Esquibel, Tim Garcia, Jona Hrdlicka, Sabrina Meadows, and Kim Winters. Most of Cholla's Solo Ensemble Fes- tival and Regional Choir participants were members of the Chollaires. With the com- bined efforts of returning members and new singers coming up from intermediate and concert choir, next year's Chollaires Ensem- ble should be a strong and talented group. Special thanks to Mr. Williamson for his as- sistance. - By LaTrice Brewster 119 Excellent And Superior sl gf' -1, 5 I First Row.
