In School Choirs
Treble Choir:
This group is exclusive to female voice.
The purpose of the ensemble is to explore the developing voices of this age
level and also to begin to understand the skills necessary for proper vocal
technique. Literature will include a variety of styles and types of music.
All choir performances are considered part of the course requirement.
Mixed Symphonic Choir:
The choir is the top performing vocal ensemble at Brunswick High School, and
thus requires either a private audition or recommendation of the choral
director. Auditions are held at the end of the school year. Mixed
symphonic choir performs literature from all genres and time periods of music.
The repertoire can be accompanied or a cappella and requires a developed inner
ear and expanded sensitivity to musicality. All choir performances are
considered part of the course requirement.

This group is open to both male and female
voices. The choir is recommended for those students who enjoy singing, yet
are not ready to perform in an auditioned choir. The students will be
taught the skills of sight-reading, choral musicianship, and vocal technique.
Literature will include a variety of styles and types of music. All choir
performances are considered part of the course requirement.
