Practice Does Make Perfect For Southwest Chorus The Choral Music Department re- mained active throughout the year Starting with daily practices and continu- ing with practices until the year’s end, they performed numerous concerts, in- cluding an excellent Christmas concert at Macon Junior College where they sang excerpts, from ‘Handel's Messiah” using a combination of the choirs. Often, a single choir performed alone, such as the Jazz Rock Choir, which performed concerts On campus, af shopping centers, and at elementary schools. The chorus attended many workshops and festivals throughout the year. At the workshops, they learned new music and studied basic techniques of singing. A group went to the Universi- ty of Georgia for a choral workshop at the beginning of the year where they spent a full day learning new music and, in the evening, they performed with the University singers. On March tenth, the Concert Choir traveled to Central High school for a festival which is held annual- ly. This year they rated Excellent for their performance of ‘Ain't Got Time To Die’ and “Sing a New Song To the Lord. ’ When attending festivals, the choirs are rated as a whole but this year several soloists attended a Solo Ensemble Festival at Fort Valley State College where they were rated in- dividually, | for superior, ll for excellent, Ill for good, and IV for fair. To conclude such a superb year, the Choral Music Department attended a banquet where awards were given to outstanding musicians of the chorus. This year was indeed crowded with ac- tivities which, once again, showed the excellence of the Choral Music Department. TOP. LEFT TO RIGHT: Senior Chorus Members.
