This Week in Choir: Week 10


Good Morning Grissom Choir,


I hope that everyone had a wonderful Fall Break, and is excited to continue working towards our Winter Concert that is only 7 rehearsal weeks away!


Before the break, the Grissom Concert Choir had a non-stop day of singing at the University of Montevallo for their annual Choral Festival of Voices! The high school clinician, Dr. Martha Shaw, was VERY impressed specifically with Grissom Choir’s attentiveness, respect, and dedication.  Congratulations to the Concert Choir on fantastic day of choral singing!


After the break, 4 Grissom Choir members (Jenny Dick, James Graham, Molly Malone, & Marisa Nelson) spent their weekend in Birmingham at the UAB Choral Masterworks Festival, where they worked alongside the UAB Concert Choir & select other HS students from throughout the state.  The Masterworks Choir performed the world premiere of Michael John Trotta’s new setting of the Requiem text, of whom our students were able to meet and work with at the festival.  Congratulations to these 4 Grissom Choir members on an outstanding festival performance!
