This spring, all 4 Grissom Choirs will be traveling down to the Birmingham on Monday, February 23rd for the University of Alabama in Birmingham’s Honor Choir.  This honor choir is designed to affirm the participation of young singers in the vocal arts. The choirs are comprised of high school students throughout the State of Alabama. Students work closely with the festival clinician in intense rehearsals focusing on musicianship skills, voice building, and ensemble performance. The choir also rehearses and performs side-by-side the UAB Concert Choir. Students will experience concerts and masterclasses, and will perform with seasoned professionals on traditional and exciting new choral repertoire.  A more detailed letter was emailed out & sent home last week.  Please mark your calendar for this day!
