Rehearsals Begin

Rehearsals began in earnest today, with mens and womens rehearsals before lunch, 4-part rehearsals and a full rehearsal in the afternoon, and evening.

 

   

Mrs. Carol Jones, a professor at Muskingum College (in New Concord, Ohio) and an expert in vocal health gave the annual "Vocal Care" presentation.

Mrs. Jones and her husband Robert Owen Jones, director of Choral Activities at Muskingum were presented with Youth Choir Staff shirts in thanks for their participation and recognition of their continuing support of the Youth Choir.

Today's Stanza
Renee Geyer , C.I.T. My first full day as a CIT was AMAZING! To get to see how the choir operates 'behind the scenes' is a fantastic thing. People do not realize how much work goes into making this organization run. I feel like I have learned so much, and it has only been a day and a half! The kids are awesome, the staff is great, and I feel that it can only get better from here.

Michael Smith, 1st year member Today was my second experience with the AOSFYC, after attending Recruit Day last year, and I again completely amazed by the experience. The wonderful directing and the overall family feeling of the choir. The thing that amazed me the most, I think, is how the conductors influence to perfection the dynamics, tempos, diction, and feeling of the music with just their fingers. This is my first day and I am already overwhelmed with anticipation! The journey has barely begun, and I can't wait for the coming weeks.
