Information concerning posting LSE choirs for 2010-2011
Please read
this information before looking for your name on the list.
When lists have been posted, you may view them by clicking here.
* The lists will be posted on March 19, in the
office
window or in the front door (circle drive). At about 3:30, they
will also be posted on the vocal department website (www.lsechoir.org).
* Be sensitive to other students as you look at the list. Please don’t
show emotion at the office window. Wait until you are home, or at least
away from other students, to celebrate or to cry.
*Realize that the competition for all eight choirs is very extreme.
Many students who audition aren’t selected for any choir. Some of you
have “self-eliminated” by limiting the choirs in which you are willing
to participate. In varsity choirs, when two students have comparable
scores, the senior will be chosen for the choir.
* Instructors make choices based on students’ musical ability, work
ethic, attendance, academic responsibility, and ability to get along
well with others.
*Choirs are not “stacked.” One individual choir does not get students
with all the highest musical scores. Every choir has a mix of good
voices, good ears, good sight-readers and good leaders.
*We sometimes ask students if they can take two choirs. We ask
different students for different reasons. Being asked if you’d like to
participate in two choirs does not mean that we have already decided
you will be in a small choir.
*Some of you will not find your name on the list of your choice.
We hope you understand that we gave every student a great deal of
thought and consideration. To be chosen for any LSE choir is a great
honor and privilege. Every choir here is exceptionally good.
*If you are disappointed with your choir placement, it is fine for you
to take some time over the break to feel sad. Then, try to focus
on the positive, choose to get past it, and GO ON. Often
when one door is shut, another one opens that leads to something even
better.
*If you would like to discuss your choir placement or audition with
Mrs. Noonan, Mr. Scheele, or Mrs. Moore, feel free to contact us after
Spring break to
set up an appointment.
