AP Music Theory is an intense year-long course that focuses on mastering listening, reading and writing music skills. Students acquire the knowledge and skills needed to complete successfully the Advanced Placement examination. The course of study includes the fundamentals of music theory and the application of those components through composition, ear-training and sight-singing practice. Students learn to understand and respond to the structure of music intellectually, physically and aesthetically.
Vocal Ensemble
Students must have prior vocal music experience and be selected through audition to register for the class. Open to students in grades 9 through 12.
Vocalists may participate in this class to earn elective credit in the Fine Arts. One credit is earned for a full year’s participation. Vocal Ensemble meets two days per week outside the class schedule and may perform on Fall and Spring Family Weekends and in Lessons and Carols services at Christmas. Students are responsible for learning their individual parts outside of class so rehearsal time may be used to perfect the ensemble performance.
