Footnotes Girls Choir, 6-8th grade
Directed by Cindy Christensen with dance instruction by Shelley Christensen
This choir’s emphasis is Pop and Show tunes with choreography and dancing. The choir may also include some traditional styles and other genres. A strong understanding of music, and experience on stage is needed, and dancing experience is desirable, but not mandatory. Singing in harmony, and being flexible in singing different voice parts is optimal. Regular rehearsal attendance is required as are certain performances. This choir has a tuition fee, and scholarships are available for financial need.
