Vocal Music
The Elizabeth Seton High School Choral Music Program provides students with the opportunity to develop their skills as singers and musicians through classes within the daily academic schedule and through performing opportunities on and off campus in a school community that respects and supports the arts.
In a culture in which all kinds of music is instantly available for listening, it’s easy to become simply a music consumer. The opportunity to participate in choir, on the other hand, enables its members to become music makers as they learn to focus their vocal and interpretive skills. The vast array of choral literature provides access to historical eras, cultural expressions, poetry, foreign languages, sacred works, and popular songs.
