RAGS SCHOOL CHOIR
ABOUT
With the addition of the Rags School of Music Choir program, our mission is to foster a sense of community and collaboration among young singers through ensemble training. We focus on building essential skills such as music reading, pitch matching, and confidence in performance.
Our program emphasizes the value of group learning alongside private instruction, providing students with opportunities to apply their skills in a supportive, peer-driven environment.
Under the guidance of our artistic director, Megan, students will participate in an 11-week program, rehearsing weekly and preparing for end-of-semester concerts. The repertoire will span from classical to popular selections, offering a rich and diverse musical experience.
