VOCAL MUSIC: CHOIR

2019/20

Performing in a choir at Castle View High School will give students the opportunity to be introduced to great choral literature, both sacred and secular, from all major periods in music history. This music is taught from the perspective of great choral art. A minimum of four seasonal concerts will be performed as a choral music department. Other performances at festivals, colleges, or in our community will occur as necessary.
