The Humphrey Elementary Silver Stars Chorus is made up of 3rd through 6th grade

students who love to sing. Chorus will meet every Tuesday after school from 2:45-3:30

p.m.

Chorus students learn many singing skills. These include the ability to use singing posture

and breathing techniques to support vocal production, to identify vocal anatomy including

the function of the diaphragm and the larynx in singing, to use breathing exercises during

vocal warm-ups, to develop accurate intonation and beauty of tone in singing, to demonstrate

knowledge of terminology related to producing a vocal tone, to perform music in unison and

harmony with and without accompaniment, to read music of varying styles and levels of

difficulty, to develop the ability to sing independently, and to work together as a

cooperative group.

The chorus will perform several times throughout the year. These performances will

include; school concerts and the CUSD District Choral Festival. The specific performance

dates will be announced soon.

If you are able to attend all rehearsals and have arranged for prompt transportation home

on Tuesday, October 22nd at 2:45-3:30 p.m.
