San Ramon Ensemble
Description: Training chorus for students ages 11-13 with emphasis on training in vocal technique, development of sight reading and performance skills. Director: Laryssa Sadoway Performances: Participation in 3 to 5 scheduled performances per semester is required including annual Winter and Spring concerts. Check your calendar for dates. Performances can be any day of the week, although we try not to schedule many on Sunday mornings. Most performances are at night and on Saturdays. Since we are trying to reach other children with music and music education, we do several school performances during the year. Every effort is made to schedule these performances so the chorister loses a minimum of school time. Many schools recognize this as independent study. There are permission slips available in the chorus office and a cover letter explaining our organization. Each semester we have two concerts of our
own, the Winter Concert and the Spring Concert. These are wonderful and
inspiring concerts with each level performing and a mass-performance of
all levels. Do not be afraid to ask teachers, neighbors or anyone with a
love for music and children. These concerts are very professional, and
the audience is guaranteed to be touched and amazed at the
accomplishments of the choristers and their music. Expectations: To learn music in a timely manner. Practice with a tape recorder. Curriculum: Theory, sight singing intervals, rhythm and reading techniques. Emphasis on breathing, ear training, diction, focusing, two-part harmony. San Ramone 1 Home Page
