How does chorus & instrumental music work, when my child wants to take both?
There are several ways that choral and instrumental music coexist. One choice is to take 2 credits of music, all year – one of chorus, one of instrumental music, alternating on A/B days. Another option is to take one credit of music, on A day or B day, and spend half of block 4 in chorus, and half in instrumental music. To do this, a student must choose either higher-level instrumental (Wind Ensemble, String Ensemble), coupled with regular chorus (Concert Chorale), or regular instrumental (Concert Band, String Orchestra), coupled with higher-level chorus (Chamber Singers).
