Students in chorus at Noe learn the fundamentals of healthy vocal production and practice rehearsal techniques such as solfege syllables, count-singing, canon-singing (rounds), and diction lessons to learn repertoire from the various classical time periods and music in various languages. The fundamentals of music reading are emphasized through the use of melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic exercises. Basic music theory and history also are introduced and applied to the performance repertoire.
The program provides opportunities for solo and small ensemble singing, as well as large ensemble participation in the Kentucky Music Educators Association (KMEA) Festival. Students may participate in the Kentucky Choral Directors Association Fall Convocation, KMEA Solo and Ensemble Competition, and various other performances.
