More information will be provided to any choir student interested. Concert Etiquette Etiquette in a concert setting is extremely important for the performing ensemble. We teach that appropriate conduct during an athletic event or a movie is different than conduct at a live artistic performance. We sincerely wish for our audiences to thoroughly enjoy themselves during our programs. For that reason we ask that they respect the following basic concert manners. On time for the performance = In concert position, ready to warm-up at specific venue at least 20 minutes prior to the starting time of the concert. Turn off all cell phones and beepers Stay seated during the performance Applaud when appropriate Talk only between selections not during Younger siblings should be seated with parents throughout the entire performance Be considerate of others when taking pictures or videotaping
4 4 WMS CHOIR Other Opportunities Show Choir You will have the opportunity to audition for Show Choir, provided that you are enrolled in choir. Meeting and audition dates/times will be announced during the school day towards the middle of September. National ACDA Honor Choir Choir students enrolled in choir may choose to audition for the National ACDA Honor Choirs. This year, the event will be taking place in Minneapolis, MN. Recorded auditions are due in September. The Honor Choir will take place in March. Music gives a soul to the universe, Elementary/Middle School Music Festival 6-8 grade students may choose to perform a solo, duet or participate in an ensemble in April. Their performance will be critiqued by an adjudicator. Great opportunity! wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything. ~ Plato ~ Concerts & Extra Opportunities Wachter Choir Concerts are an expectation and requirement for every WMS Choir Student. Failure to attend a required performance with an unexcused reason will affect the overall grade. Excused absences will be decided on an individual basis by Mrs. Bondley & Ms. Douts. An example of an excused absence would be if there is a family emergency. If a student is excused from a performance, a makeup assignment will be provided Extra Opportunities such as the ones listed above are not required. However, we encourage every choir student to take advantage of these excellent choral opportunities! We will provide details for each as the time nears. Most of them require a recorded audition which we will complete with each student auditioning.
