Why Choir?
"A world without music is like a human without a soul " (Eric Whitacre)
As humans, we have a need to share our stories, and choir allows us the opportunity to do just that through the music we sing and the friendships we make. The lessons taught in the choir room go so much deeper than just learning how to read music and sing pretty songs. Choral music develops the whole human. In a world where there is so much division and discontent, choir teaches compassion, tolerance, and acceptance of others. It teaches discipline, determination, and dedication to something larger than ourselves. Choir develops work ethic and drive, and allows students to experience the art of collaboration through teamwork and leadership skills in a safe and nurturing environment. Finally, it opens the door for building relationships and lasting friendships that become our second "family" - our home away from home.
You are in a great place within the NRMS Choir Department and we are so excited that you have chosen to be a part of this very special, award-winning organization.
