FINE ARTS

BA CHORUS

Brentwood Academy offers three sections of chorus for students to choose as an elective. This includes 6th grade chorus, combined Chorus 7 and 8, and an upper school chorus. Students in chorus prepare music for performances , as well as learn the disciplines of proper vocal technique, sight-singing, ear-training, and music history to support group performances.

The primary goal of the BA chorus program is to encourage students with a desire to be well-rounded, self-sufficient musicians, who can continue a passion and love for singing whether professionally or in their community.

ALLY HARD, DIRECTOR OF CHORUS


“For me, singing is a form of prayer. There’s emotion involved, the whole body, and it becomes prayer and praise. I also love when students discover the wonderful, beautiful gifts that God gave them that maybe they didn’t realize that they had. Some of my best theology I learned from the church choir, and I bring that experience into my teaching at BA.”
