Choir

year before I was a Freshman, there was only one Freshman that made it. You can understand that I was nervous when it came time for me to try out. Everyone who was trying out gathered in our choir room. Our choir room can hold a lot of people, and it felt like it was about to burst with people. Our choir director, Mr. Spear, is a rather short man with fiery red hair. “We’re going to call 1 person from each section at a time, and then we’re going to call some people back tomorrow that we think…

music and sing. I participated in chorus all throughout middle school. During this time our school’s band and chorus traveled to Seaworld and performed for the guest. I have also participated in my church's youth choir, general choir, praise team, and assisted in leading the children's choir this year. Otherwise I know a few keys on the piano and as of right now I am attempting to learn how to play the guitar. I have a wide variety of music I like to listen to. For instance, some of my…

Because my view of this discourse community may differ from another’s; I have decided to take time and observe a member of the choir to gain insight of their view. My attention drew towards a previous choir member, Ginny Cox. Ginny is a junior in high school and is currently a part of a chorale group and stood out to me in several ways. She’s simply “not like most girls”. I would describe her as a shy but motivated…

but scholars have made the assumption that his intention was to sell the family's produce and other products from their farm. While he was peddling his products, Palestrina would sing songs he made up. On one faithful day, a choir master heard him and was very impressed. The choir master, which happened to be of Santa Maria, was so impressed that he took Palestrina under his wing and mentored…

Wind by Ryan Scott, Ihr Music by Hans Leo Hassler. This part got me so bored. My ears were not fascinated with how wonderful their voices were. Some of the singers in Kantorei also participated in the last part of the program, which was the whole choir. Their first song was the O Magnum Mysterium, followed by the Glory Manger, then the Jesus, Jesus, Rest Your Head, and lastly, finally, they sang the Come in…

hushed voices. My choir director motioned me forward to the microphone. I peered over the crowd in front of me and then the manuscript in my hands. It had been four months in preparation for this night; four months wrestling with writer’s muse and competing with time’s arrow. As my choir director introduced me to the audience, I knew that all the efficacy invested in this moment had come to a close. It was finished and it came time to exhibit what a passion can nurture. My choir director…

The hotel that we stayed at was pretty nice there were four of us girls in a room and there was a pool. Everyone in choir was at the pool so we decided to run around the hotel and take picture. While we were there we went to the zoo then Lagoon. The zoo was pretty cool we got to split up and do our own thing so it was nice it was small but cool. A lot of people got done…

Ralph’s blow of the conch unites the boys at the beginning of the novel. The boys vote for whether Jack or Ralph should be chief. For example, when Ralph asks the group who wants him for chief, “every hand outside the choir except Piggy’s was raised immediately” (Golding 23). The boys show a sense of togetherness as they decide who should rule them as a single unit. The conch brings the boys together because they are deciding who should have control over the conch. Another example of the unity…

I always enjoyed singing. I sang along to the songs in Disney movies, to the radio in the car, or just at home in my room. I was in choir all year during seventh grade. We sang many songs that year, even one in an African language, but only one song had any solo tryouts. Mrs. Smith picked “Wide Awake” by Katy Perry for us to sing, so we could have at least one modern song. There were three solos in it, I tried out for the first one. The tryouts weren’t in front of the class, but I still had to…

with the girls basketball team, and making a class float for homecoming. Even though I did not do very much my freshman year I still really enjoyed it. Some of the things that I would have liked to do differently would be trying out for Jubilate in choir and possibly being in more clubs. This year I have enjoyed the two clubs that I was apart of, but I would also like to go outside…
