Concert Choir The Concert Choir, selected by audition only, partici- pates in many school assemblies. It is the major choir at Northeast and performs in many local events, especially sacred concerts. Members of the choir are represented in the All State Chorus at the FMEA-the Florida Music Education Association in Daytona. The Concert Choir also participated in the County Music Festival where it was the host of rehearsals. Each member of this choir finds in music a means to express himself.

Under Mrs. Rowe, the group studies many kinds of music including light sacred music, popular music and folk music. With much practice, the Mixed Chorus works to achieve a mature and clear sound, one which pleases every audience, including the Northeast audience, and also fulfills a personal satisfaction within themselves.
