Dear Choral Director,
The GISA All-Select Performances (Band, Chorus & Orchestra) will be held on Sunday, November 4, 2012 hosted by Atlanta International School in Atlanta. We hope that you are planning to participate in the GISA All-Select Chorus. Rehearsals will take place on Saturday, November 3rd. Please note that November 3rd is an SAT TEST DATE. If your student(s) are already scheduled to take the SAT on this date – PLEASE DO NOT NOMINATE them for All-Select this year! Performances will take place on Sunday, November 4th. This year’s Choral Clinician will be Dr. Diane Orlofsky, Professor of Music and Director of TROY University Choirs, Troy University, Alabama.
The mixed chorus will consist of approximately 100-120 singers in grades 9 through 12. Please nominate up to four (4) of your top students in each section, ranking them in order of ability within their section. The first nominee in each section will be chosen; others will be selected to fill out the sections. It is imperative that you nominate those students who are able to sing in tune, who sing comfortably within their specified vocal registers, and who possess the skills to learn the literature prior to the first rehearsal.
