Thank you to all who auditioned! The auditions were a tough process, but it is so evident how much you all have grown over the past year. I am very much looking forward to working with all of you in our concert choirs throughout next year.
If it is possible, the goal is to find a spot for everyone where they can grow and be successful. I appreciate your patience and kindness with one another as you all know these decisions are very difficult to make, and we all understand that these can be tough situations emotionally.
If you have any questions or concerns about your score, feel free to come see me. I have done my best to record scores and to organize data as effectively as possible, in order to be as accountable and fair as possible.
Thanks so much for your dedication and spirit. Each of you, and our GVC Choir Family as a whole, has so much to be proud of!

VOCAL JAZZ ENSEMBLES 2017 - 2018
The students listed in each ensemble have signed a contract on their audition form. They have promised to be dependable, hard-working, and supportive team members. Maintaining their spot in the ensemble is dependent upon honouring their commitments. If they are unable to uphold this standard, they may forfeit their spot to another singer. These singers will be selected from the alternates.
