First Day of JUNE TERM

Last night was such a great turn out.   The kids came ready to sing and really had the chance to express themselves.   I will post important information here so you can stay up to date on whats going on with the choir.

JR CHOIR -
Did an amazing job.   I absolutely love the fact that we have a good mix of boys and girls.  The kids started off a little shy, but by the end of the night they were letting loose.   I think that every Friday their shyness will disappear.   Yesterday we learned a new song, Our goal is to learn 2 songs, but there's a chance because we only have 1 month that we might only learn 1 song.   I will watch them and see how much they can handle.

Practice:
If you can practice with them these 2 songs outside of class.  They will be able to learn 2 songs.  It's very important that they practice and learn the lyrics the best they can.  I'm so excited with how much they have already learned in the first day.


Songs:
Hold my hand - Michael Jackson & Akon

Lean on me - Bill Withers

* keep in mind, it would be best if they learn the whole song, there's a chance we will not sing the entire song it will be edited in a way that is best for the class and decided by the Director.  Below are links to the songs we will be singing if they need to practice.   Another good idea is to have them practice to karaoke versions.

SR CHOIR -
These guys are ready to hit the stage.   They had a really good practice yesterday and I think they will do fine on the 2 songs.  Each of them yesterday sang solos already in front of the class.   At first they were nervous, but it really helped for them to see the kids from last term get up and sing and not be shy.  Our new additions to the class stepped it up and I was surprised they sang a solo on their first day....They all did Aca-Awesome.

Practice:
Please practice the two songs we learned and memorize the lyrics.   I will be auditioning next week for solo parts.   They each need to be prepared to come to class with a 30 second solo.  It can be any song, try to keep it to 30 seconds.  Last term everyone had a blast doing this.  They will also be recorded.  Let me know if you do not want you child's recording on the website.

Songs:
Impossible
