My Students

I teach chorus at a specialized STEM high school and currently have over 300 students in my three choruses. While our students are very interested in math, science, and technology, they also love the humanities and the arts. They love learning music, singing, and sharing the love of music with their audience. Most students who come into the chorus stay in the program for all four years of high school.

We perform frequently both in and outside of school for community events.

Our repertoire is varied - from seriously extended oratorios to light and fun pop songs. We perform the music of various languages, cultures, and styles. It is my goal to help my students discover a life-long appreciation of music and of singing. While many of them will not go on to major in music, many of my singers join vocal groups in college and beyond and simply become music lovers for life.

My Project

My students enjoy studying and performing long choral works such as oratorios and Requiems. If the music is not properly protected with a special music folder, it gets damaged in a short period of time. These special choral folders allow the music to be safe and protected. At the same time, it is constructed for easy use on stage and in rehearsals - the folders keep the music aligned properly, provide the opportunity to divide the score into parts as needed, and are very durable. They also look very professional and uniform on stage - the students feel good, look good, and sing with more confidence!
