My Students

"We become an Ensemble by doing the Same Thing, the Same Way, at the Same Time....ALL THE TIME!" This is the motto that we use in our choral performance group. Our goal is to become one of the premiere performance groups in the city of Atlanta and possibly travel the World.

Even a diamond comes from a rough place.

My students are a unique group of learners. They come from a high poverty urban area that does not offer many outlets for them. My students have found a kindred love of music and use this gift to express themselves to the world!

My Project

As a performance group, we are always looking for ways to enhance our group and make the sound even better. This microphone will assist us in creating and maintaining the professional sound that many performance groups hope for, and strive to achieve when they hit the stage.

Be Great On Purpose!

This has always been our focus, and it continues to be the motto that drives our efforts. As we study performance groups, we learn that having the top performance tools and equipment can sometimes make or break your efforts. Receiving this microphone will surely help us move from good to great!
