Ensembles


We're ready to sing and play!

Ensembles offer individuals an opportunity to make music while learning about the music they are performing. Participants learn the importance of good listening skills and how to be sensitive to the total musical composition. The ensembles will perform for selected community events and will participate in two concerts per year for the general community. In addition to the ensembles listed here, we anticipate small ensembles will evolve out of the various instrumental studios which, in turn, may evolve into larger, combined ensembles.

 

ProMusic Choristers Concert Choir . . .

is a choir for children in grades 4 - 8. A major goal is to develop refined singing technique, musicianship skills and performance skills while learning and performing high quality literature. In addition to performing for special community events and presenting two community concerts per year, the choir tours regionally and internationally. In July 2012, the choir toured Ireland performing in medieval churches and castles. In May 2016, the choir performed in the National Memorial Day Concert Series in Washington, DC. Tours depend on the committed musical work of students and committed fund raising activities of students and parents.
