2016 Vocal Fest #99Learns #DGSPride


Over 50 students participated today in 2016 Vocal Festival.  Students prepared and performed art songs for an adjudicator.  Immediately after the performance, the judge provided the student performers with immediate formative feedback on their performance.  This feedback is done in front of an audience of observers in a master class setting, so the audience members can learn from the teaching as well as the performer.

After a day of performing, there are after school call-backs for students to earn a spot in the District 99 Honors Vocal Festival on Monday, March 21, 2106 at 7:30 PM at Gloria Dei Church.  We are extremely proud of every participating performer today for making the investment into studying and performing these songs.

Special congratulations goes to the students that earned special recognition from the judges, and, that earned a spot to perform on the D99 Honors Vocal Festival on March 21, 2016 at 7:30 PM at Gloria Dei Church.  Thanks also to the parents volunteers from today who provided hospitality and who assisted with the logistics of the festival during the course of the day.
