S Mixed Chorus Sings Out For Plaza The Mixed Chorus is made up of eighth grade boys and girls. These students concentrate on being able to sing the parts they are asked to sing. Vocal exercises are used to extend the voice range both in the upper register as well as the lower register. Music must be chosen carefully for the changing voice of the boy. The Mixed Chorus performed at the Spring Con- cert with the Madrigals and the Con- cert Chorus. MIXED CHORUS Row l: T. Tynes, C. McCool, R. Neary, S. Pugh, G. Weaver, P. D'Amico, D.
