We ended Chamber Choir class by singing our Alma Mater in the grand hallway – great first day!  Concert Choir jumped right in by learning some rounds and warm-ups.  I am so excited for their potential this year – nice sound.

On Friday, after reviewing the syllabus and handbook, we will continue to work on creating a uniform sound through warm-ups, rounds and familiar music.  Both classes will work on solfege skills as well.

I wanted to share with you an awesome video just released (their first!) by a new vocal band, NOMADIC. Their bass is a past student of mine, Kyle Hogan.  Some of you might remember him from a video I showed you last year.  This is a brand new group and they are sure to go far!!

Definitely best to listen with headphones or over good speakers that pick up bass well! I’m not familiar with Kimbra or this song, but I was very impressed with the intricate harmonies and rhythms – very cool!!
