4 Choir Develops Music Quality Sixty pairs of lungs nearly collapsed as choir members held out a long phrase in the song, O Come Emmanuel . High school choir is an interesting learning ex- perience under the direction of Mr. Lowell Hart. Choir is a class that many enjoy. Each practice includes a wide variety of drills, including rhythm patterns, and tone exercises. This provides the necessary foundation and discipline for good singing. lt may sound tedious, but actually, there is a lot of laughter as students attempt to mimic IVlr. Hart's gestures, sounds and facial ex- pressions. However, choir involves more. lVlr. Hart continually attempts to show them the qualities of music. Judy Reimer found that she ap- preciated a good response from the audience. Most of the songs are prepared for a program or service. Students enjoy working towards a goal. Fist clenched and arm waving, lVlr. Hart directed the choir to the climax of Gloria . The satisfaction each one felt was worth the hard work preparing for the Christmas chapel. Tim Dyck summarized, lt is more than just performing. lt gives me a chance to glorify God when l sing. Staff Report
