On Friday, October 4th, some members of the high school choirs attended a workshop at Baker University where they learned songs that they will need to know for the All-State Choir Auditions in a couple weeks. These workshops allow the students to get new perspectives on how the pieces should be performed, sing along with students from other high schools, and gain new techniques from a collegiate level clinician. The students benefit greatly from the day to focus on this material and always take away tips and fresh ways to prepare the music!
