"If arts have a place in society, they must be a part of a community. To be an artist is not the privilege of a few, but the necessity of us all." –Robert Lawson Shaw

September Gigs and "The Star Spangled Banner" Study Guide
We're already getting invitations for our Chorus to perform! Please note the following dates:
Thursday, September 13th 6:30pm (Call time 5:45pm--no later!)Advanced Chorus has been invited to sing at the Virginia Highlands Association 40th Anniversary Party! The area called Virginia Highland has been around since 1972, and the neighborhood has been here 100 years! Our kids will help celebrate by singing songs from 1972 and 1912!
Attire: since our new AC members do not have our Music@SPARK shirts we may wear black pants/shorts/skirts, black shoes and any SPARK wear. Ms. Turgeon is checking to see if we can do a rush order for shirts or borrow shirts from non-AC members.
Friday, September 21st 7:00pm game time (call time 6:00pm) ALL 4th and 5th graders (Chorus members or not) are invited to sing "The Star Spangled Banner" at the Georgia Tech Women's Volley Ball Game vs Boston College. It will be Alumni Night, so there's sure to be a crowd!
The Women's Volleyball Games are at at O’Keefe Gym
151 Sixth Street, N.W. Atlanta (right behind theTech Coliseum).
Students who wish to sing should do a word-check with Ms. Turgeon before signing up. Former Chorus/AC members do not have to do the word check.
Students who wish to sing should plan to attend Advanced Chorus rehearsal on Friday, September 14th OR Friday, September 21st (game day) to rehearse with the entire Chorus!
Below are the words to "The Star Spangled Banner". Pay special attention to the words in bold. Those are the words folks mess up the most. Also, don't breathe during the title of the song!:
Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
