Choir

leaves in the fall with my high school student council, and participated in community clean up with the volleyball team. I am very involved within my church as I assist with tasks such as ushering, filming of services, and performing in the church choir. I am a Vacation Bible School leader during the summer, and assist with the after school program called ARK. Watching and helping children grow in their faith is rewarding. I also participated in two mission trips organized by my church. The…

of love. The singers successfully moved all through various positions and groupings. The corridor gave a surprising space to this choir to be heard in all its magnificence of choral…

Would you be able to survive on a deserted island with all of your friends and no adults? This may sound like a perfect life, but you may want to think that idea over. In William Golding's novel, Lord of the Flies, it is not as perfect as it sounds. A group of boys gets stranded on an island after a plane crash and they have to figure out a way to survive. It seems easy for them in the beginning, but they soon find out that they can't trust anyone and that no one is keeping their orders. This…

“Why do you want to quit band Emily?” Mr. Lumley would ask me at every lesson in 8th grade. My response always was the same. “Because we have to chose either band or choir in high school, and I’m choosing choir.” Except, I decided to stay in band. To this day I don’t regret my decision to stay in band. It’s huge part of me, and I can’t believe I almost let it go. Without band I wouldn’t have been on the track playing pep band songs at…

are given a playful and jaunty theme. Enter the realms of the Elves and you find a very ancient, ethereal and almost religious sound, performed by a female choir. A dark, chanting choir represents the Black Riders and the result is an incredibly evil and very dramatic melody. The predominately masculine Dwarvish culture is presented by a male choir, consisting of 60 Polonasian singers that chant dark and powerful dwarvish verses. "When they look down into the depth of Moria", Peter Jackson says…

The Saturday symphony begins as electric mixers hum and speakers pulse. The rapid succession of thuds signal the conductors below, informing them that the final instrumentalists are awake and ready to play their part. Three children emerge from the stairs hauling pencils, pastels, and sketch paper, littering the living room floor as new masterpieces are planned and executed. Music from microphones fill the rooms with my mother's soulful singing while graphite and stationary collide to become art…

to the biggest choir I would have auditioned for. The ACDA (American Choral Directors association) not many people made it in, but when my choral director was reading off the numbers I just couldn’t believe the numbers that where given to me where read off. I sat there with disbelief, my stomach dropped, tears where flooding my eyes, and joy was filling my whole body. Me a hispanic boy from Iowa who would be the the only person from my school to make it into this astounding choir! When I…

I love math. I know this is not a common sentiment or a statement one often hears, but it is how I feel. Math has been my favorite academic subject since elementary school. Wanting to improve and sharpen my math skills, I have been enrolled in a math tutoring facility called Mathnasium since the seventh grade. After going for a few years now, I have realized how much I enjoy learning new math concepts and dive into whatever challenges the next level holds. My tutors have always been encouraged…

unknown predator. Frequently throughout the novel savagery is a significant motif that supplies evidence explaining how the nature of mankind is barbaric to the core. The concept of savagery begins early on in the story when Jack, the leader of the choir, attempts to slaughter a sow. This eventually creates an obsession within himself to fulfill his desire to execute…

How serious were the problems facing the Elizabethan regime from 1589 to 1603? The main problems facing the Elizabethan regime from 1589 to 1603 broadly speaking were Presbyterians, relations between Spain and France and the threat they posed to the Elizabethan religious settlement; the death of advisers such as Burghley, Walsingham and the Earl of Leicester which meant Elizabeth I was now surrounded by new advisers she didn’t know if she could trust; the issue of succession which posed a threat…
