Teaching approach
Every voice contributes to the ensemble.
Josie builds ensemble skills through supportive, age-appropriate instruction that helps students contribute confidently to the group. Solo opportunities allow interested singers to grow individually while the choir’s shared sound remains at the center of the program.
Participation expectations
Concert confidence grows through preparation.
Consistent rehearsal attendance and individual review help the choir build a unified, confident sound.
Attend rehearsals consistently and contribute to the focused preparation of the ensemble’s music.
Review assigned music between rehearsals so notes, rhythms, text, and phrasing become increasingly secure.
Build confidence through repeated ensemble practice leading to three performances during the program.
