KARIGON
Mrs. Kathy Mason

4th and 5th Grade Chorus
 

The Karigon Chorus (4th and 5th graders) are a voluntary group of singers who attend chorus by choice, not audition. It meets once per week for 1/2 hour for each chorus (4th and 5th) to rehearse during the Tuesday school day. This rehearsal works on separate musical parts(soprano and alto) and choreography for the musicals we produce twice per year.

We write the story at an after school Theater Writers Workshop and then audition for the roles we have chosen for the musical. Mrs. Valentine chooses the music or arranges it to fit the story line. Rehearsals happen for speaking and solo parts after school.  The second performance will be April 28th and the following morning.
