Gladiators info and Congratulations to AC for a great job at LGPE!


Purchase your tickets here: GLADIATORS TICKETS

Remember this is a fundraiser for all Grady Elementary Chorus groups. Each group receives a donation back to their school based on ticket sales.




Go HERE for practice text and videos 

for O, Canada (English and French) and the Star Spangled Banner Harmony.

The Gladiators play at Infinite Energy Center 6400 Sugarloaf Pkwy, Duluth, GA 30097
Our "uniform" is:
Chorus/AC: Music@SPARK shirt/black pants/skirts/shoes

Others: any SPARK shirt or green shirt and black/dark pants/skirts 

The call time is 6:05pm. At that time you'll drop your kids with me and take their belongings with you. 

Singers will meet up, line up, warm up, and get to our singing location. After we sing we'll bring the kids to the seating area for our group and you can enjoy the game!


On Thursday, February 20 our Advanced Chorus attended the 
Georgia Music Educators Association Large Group Performance Evaluation (LGPE) 
at Tri-Cities High School

LGPE is an event in which choruses from our GMEA district perform for a panel of judges. We are rated on a scale, based on criteria for excellence in Choral music, and our judges are well-known choral experts in Georgia.
We got to spend some time on the bus
with singers from Mary Lin!

Our Music@SPARK performance 😊


(the person who filmed the live performance had an unfortunate coughing fit throughout Tango, so this is a still shot from the video with the professional recording dubbed in)


While no performance is perfect, our students and I were proud of our performance and our scores. I chose a 7th/8th grade unison sight-singing example, and the kids rocked it.
