This course is specifically designed for the young male singer. Boy’s Choir provides an excellent opportunity to learn self-discipline, group cohesiveness, and trust, as students develop their voices within a vocal ensemble. The boys will learn to sing a variety of choral literature and styles from around the world in unison, two-or three-part harmony. Through the daily rehearsal, various musical concepts are taught with an emphasis on those skills relating to singing: correct breathing and vocal techniques (diction, blend, balance, phrasing, intonation, articulation, tone quality). Students will learn basic music theory through the use of acoustic guitars. (Guitars will be supplied by the school.)
