Mr. Robby NapoliAlthough he once had hopes of being a drummer in a rock band, Mr. Napoli found his true home in choral music early. In 2014, he founded Lux, a semi-professional chamber choir based in Hyattsville, MD. Mr. Napoli both conducts and sings with the group, which performs throughout the Baltimore-Washington area and has released three albums to date.
A choral triple threat--he is a vocalist, conductor, and composer--Mr. Napoli graduated from the Sunderman Conservatory of Gettysburg College in 2019 with a degree in Music Education and a concentration in Composition. While there, he served as music director of Gettysburg’s all-male a cappella group, Drop the Octave, and, in 2018, he was commissioned to compose a piece for the Gettysburg College Choir's Spring Tour. He has interned with multiple choral programs, lead chamber ensembles, and wrote an article on diversity in the classroom that was published in The Cupola, a collection of scholarship produced by the Gettysburg College community. Still an active singer, Mr. Napoli sings with the Choir of Christ Church Georgetown on the weekends, and has been a featured soloist with local choirs and other musical organizations. His stage credits include How to Succeed in Business, The Pirates of Penzance, and Die Fledermaus. Mr. Napoli joined the CHS music department in the Fall of 2019, and his Boosters and students alike are so excited to see where we go from here! You can read more about him here. |
