On
January 30, a group of students from Mr. Martin's chorus at West Middle
School traveled to Monroe Middle School to participate in the MSVMA Vocal Solo
and Ensemble Festival.
They
each performed folk, art and foreign language songs they had memorized and
practiced, along with their accompanist, Tracey King from The King School of
Music in Taylor. Each performer received comments and a short clinic from a
singing teacher as part of their experience.
Myra,
Adria, Alisha, Katelyn, Amelia, Connor and the trio of Sara, Kaytlyn and Jaci
each received a "Good" rating, while Courtney's performance was rated
"Excellent."
Elizabeth
gave an extraordinary performance, rating 30 of 30 possible points, for an
"Excellent with Superior Distinction" rating.
The
Cardinal Singers, the 34-voice top choir at West also performed in three mini-groups
so each individual singer had to show their ability to lead. They were
rated "good" and "excellent" and learned lots of techniques
they can apply to their upcoming performance at district choral festival.
The
staff is proud of these singers and of all their hard work!
