Gave Students One of the highest honors for any vo- cal student was membership in the Jubi- leers, the advanced choral ensemble for both boys and girls. ln addition to regular school perfor- mances, the Jubileers sang for various service and social organizations around Tucson on request. Sixteen regular mem- bers, one accompanist and five alternates composed the group. Mixed Choir was another vocal group for both boys and girls. Members of the choir were chosen on the basis of audi- tions which included sight reading, in- tonation, quality, and rhythmic and me- lodic memory. Versatility and musician- ship were also important factors in their selection. Treblettes was an all-girl group com- posed of about 30 members. With other choral groups, the Treblettes participated in the Fall Concert, the Christmas Con- cert and Moonlight Melodies in May. The various vocal groups also presented student assemblies throughout the year. Music ranging from serious to popular and from the Renaissance to contem- porary periods was performed by all three of the choral groups.
