Elementary Spring Concert 2011
I just finished another concert. Here is the Elementary Program. It was entitled Bless the Lord! I had some very fun pieces which I would recommend to anyone. Let me just introduce my groups. They all meet once a week for 30 minutes. The first group is the 3rd Grade Ensemble. It meets halfway through each semester and learns a song for the concert. The second is the Elementary Singers (4th Grade). Elementary Chorus (5th-6th) is my unauditioned general chorus. I had a 53 students this year! Elementary Ensemble (16 fifth and sixth graders) is my select ensemble. Overall, I had a very enjoyable year with my elementary students. They had just great enthusiasm.
