Early Elementary age students will lay a foundation in basic music theory through singing in an ensemble. Students will learn basic music notation, proper vowels and diction, and vocal exercises. They will sing scales, intervals, and triads through listening and imitation. Students will sing in hymns, folk songs, and traditional choral pieces in unison and basic rounds. This class will conclude each semester with a concert showcasing their work.
