She put together a list of interested students who wanted to be a choir and passed it to Mrs. Judy Starr. Mrs. Star was teaching English 101 at the time, but had spent most of her teaching years as a choir director. Pioneer Voices College Choir was formed. The choir is still an integral part of the humanities division. Since it is a class, anyone interested in singing in the choir can audition to become a member of the class.
Students receive two credit hours for the course.
And only choir students are eligible for voice lessons taught by Mrs. Strarr. Prior choral experience is desirable, but not required. Harmony with Panache Students learn the challenge of part-singing, which is necessary to provide the harmony in choral performances. The groups repertoire includes choral classics, Broadway tunes, gospel, patriotic, inspirational, folk, and American jazz music. All Rights Reserved.
