GCMS Junior Singers is a youth chorus for students who love to sing! Singers will learn to sing in parts as well as learn good vocal habits appropriate for their age, such as breathing and articulation. In addition, singers will develop listening skills for blending voices, learn and/or improve music reading skills, gain confidence, learn new repertoire, and be exposed to a variety of musical genres. During each rehearsal, students will split into age appropriate smaller groups and will end each rehearsal as a whole so that students will be learning at a developmentally appropriate pace, but will also learn what it is like to be in a performing ensemble. The Junior Singers will have a concert at the end of the session. This is a great experience for young singers!
