Maywood Singers is a beginning, yearlong ensemble open to all sixth-grade students. We focuse on the development of comprehensive choral musicianship through daily rehearsal and culminating performance experiences. A harmonious ensemble cannot be achieved without embedding social and emotional skills for communication, collaboration and self-monitoring in daily rehearsals. Student musicians will experience a breadth of music repertoire while deepening their skills in musical literacy, including sight-reading, written expression of music, score study, singing, and performing.
