Description
Welcome to the PSH Choir homepage! We offer three curricular choirs at PSH.
Concert Choir is comprised mostly of seniors and juniors who have a stable understanding of basic music elements and a desire to continue broadening their understanding of the subject. The group performs OMEA recommended Class A literature and choral music of a similar nature. Admittance into this ensemble is by invitation only.
Mixed Choir is open to all students. The focus of this ensemble is introduction to the foundations of music theory and proper vocal/choral technique.
Women's Ensemble is also open to all female students. The ensemble is similar in nature to the function of Mixed Choir.
