Chesapeake Choirs Fall 2022 Outline

8/31/2020

0 Comments

 
 Hello everyone!

Mr. Napoli, here. If we haven't yet had the chance to meet, I'm the Choral Director here at Chesapeake Choirs! We just finished off a very interesting first year together, and I couldn't be more excited to get started on the second year with you all. I wanted to give everyone a general idea of what this year is likely to look like, and I think this is the best place to do it. As you read through this, please remember that, as much as I wish I could promise everything is going to go according to plan, that this is a fluid and constantly changing situation, which means that we're going to have to be as flexible as we can when it comes to adapting to new plans.

Obviously we'll all be following our regular AACPS schedule, which means that we'll be having synchronous lessons at the scheduled times. So, without any more delay, here's the plan for each of our groups:
Picture
Concert Choir
The core parts of our choral curriculum like vocal technique, music literacy, and ensemble skills, we'll spend a good chunk of the year in a unit on the different careers in the choral world. In this unit we'll learn about the lives of professional singers, composers, conductors & teachers, audio & video producers, managers & administrators, and more!

Chamber Singers
We'll continue learning more advanced aspects of music-reading, vocal technique, and we'll also have a mock-audition project to help us prepare for different audition scenarios. I'm working on getting a special tool approved that'll hopefully make rehearsals a bit more manageable for us, too. 

Evolve
Did someone say they wanted to do ICHSA? Well here we come! I
'm so excited at the opportunities we have to continue building our musical family and making music together. 

More info to come. See you soon!
​~Mr. Napoli

Chamber Singers in Lux Virtual Choir

6/1/2020

In a completely unexpected and somewhat chaotic end to the school year, Chesapeake Choirs found ourselves without a final performance to end out the year. Enter Lux, a young professional choir based in the Washington, D.C. area! 

Our Chamber Singers were approached about participating in a virtual choir to end out the school year, alongside two other amazing high school choirs, and Lux, themselves! We had virtual masterclasses/tutorials and recorded from our own homes in our bedrooms, kitchens, and more! 

​We hope you enjoy this end-of-the-year project from our Chamber Singers!
