The high school vocal music department has several students preparing music for Conference Choir in Kirksville on February 13. Those students include the following: Elizabeth, Sabina, Amanda, Dahn, Danielle, Sara, Emily and Ransem. These students will join other vocal students from the surrounding counties in a full day of rehearsal. Students will then present a concert Saturday evening at 7:00 at the Kirksville Middle School.
Also, we have many students that are working on solos which they will sing at District Contest on March 20. These students include Sara, Dahn, Danielle, Emily, Sabina, Ransem, Dalice, and Elizabeth. Our mixed double quartet consists of Elizabeth, Danielle, Sarah, Desiree, Brandon, Logan, Dillon, and Jessop. Our final group is a girls 6 including Dahn, Kristin, Emily, Sara, Dalice, and Sarah. Each soloist and/or ensemble has to have two pieces of music memorized and ready to perform for a judge. The judge will rate the students and the students receiving I ratings will then go on to compete at State in Columbia.
These students are devoting many extra hours of practice in preparing music for conference Choir as well as Contest. Their efforts are to be applauded.
