9/10 Honor Choir Information
All 9th and 10th grade students in the Centennial HS Choral Department are invited to participate in the TMEA Region 9/10 Honor Choir Audition process. The work done in preparation for these auditions does much to improve your musicianship and potentially earns you points for advancement within the Choral Department, if you choose to do so. This is a great entry step into high school auditions & the All State process, so if you're seeking that growth, participation is encouraged! Practice intelligently and practice often.
These auditions will take place on the morning of October 26th at Boswell HS (we will travel by bus as a group). This is a singular audition, and if students earn a spot in the ensemble, they will get the honor of participating in the Region 30 Clinic & Concert day on November 14th at Arborlawn United Methodist Church in Fort Worth.
More specific audition information will be shared here in the near future.
