Choral Program
The Academie offers three choirs to meet the needs of growing voices. New students will audition to determine acceptance and proper choir placement and balance. The choirs work in the Fall semester to present a Fall concert in November. In the Spring all the choirs focus on preparing selections for a dinner theatre late in the semester.
Auditions may be scheduled by contacting the Vocal Director, Shelley Dennis, through emailing sdennis@amcentex.org or through the office. Students must participate in their school choir, if possible, to participate in Academie Musique choirs.
