Holiday Choir Concert - Tuesday, November 30thAs the weather starts to cool down, the Fall events for BHS Choir are starting to gain some steam! We have a very busy November and December ahead, full of wonderful team-building, school-spirit, and performance opportunities for our singers. In this month's newsletter, we'll look ahead to the important events in November and December and share some ways you can help BHS Choir have a great end to the Fall Semester!
Since our Fall Choir Concert, BHS Choir has been working to prepare for the challenging Spring 2022 semester. With UIL Concert & Sight-Reading as well as other UIL competitions looming over the horizon, BHS Choir has started working hard on our sight-reading and music theory skills so that we can become the best choir we can be! Every day BHS Choir students work through sight-reading exercises, Holiday concert repertoire, and music for extracurricular events (like the Gold Out Game!) On top of all of this hard work, our BHS Choir students are also working on recruitment efforts for the Bastrop Middle School and Intermediate School Choirs! One of the most important components of recruiting from younger schools is building relationships, and BHS Choir is creating a new recruitment video that will help build relationships with the younger singers even from the TV screen! The BISD Character Trait for October was responsibility. At BHS Choir, not only do our singers have a responsibility to try their best each and every day, but they also have a responsibility to work hard for each other. With all of the after school rehearsals, extracurricular events, and performances coming up in the next month, BHS Choir singers need to rely on each other for success in the ensemble. We foster that responsibility each and every day in the way we communicate with each other, interact with each other in and out of Choir class, and especially in how we sing with each other. Students have the opportunity to support each other through their singing, and as they do, the choir gets stronger with every passing day. BHS Choir has taken responsibility for their success, and I cannot wait for you to see the fruits of their labor at our next concert! Kindly, Ms. Davis, Director REMINDERS: - Due to an error in the original BHS Choir calendar, a new after-school rehearsal has been added to the schedule!
