Freshman Choir is comprised of AHS ninth grade students. The singers rehearse every other day, have sectionals about once every two weeks, and perform in three concerts per year. Ensemble Contests.
· Alternate day rehearsal allows students to maintain membership in AHS music performing groups within the AHS block schedule. Freshman choir meets for 37 minutes every other day; for example: M-W-F, T-Th through two weeks of school. Building individual musicianship, creativity, teamwork, and music literacy are important long-range goals for the choir.
· Each section also works for 20 minutes about every other week with Mr. Sellheim. This sectional time is used to check parts, explain good singing habits within the section, and develop good singing technique. Sectional meetings are part of the grade the students receive as well.
· Three concerts per year encourage our choir to set goals and work hard.
· Solo-Ensemble contests are opportunities for individual students to sing a solo for a judge. Some sophomores choose to prepare for this experience through after school individual lessons with Mr. Sellheim or another voice teacher.
