We accomplish this through promoting proper vocal technique, sight singing, music theory, teamwork, dedication, performance excellence, music literacy, and exposure to a variety of musical styles and genres. We perform at local choral festivals competing against other established choirs from the central valley. Students also have the opportunity to perform solos at concerts and learn performance techniques creating a holistic music education.
