Eastvalley Chorus

International Night 2007! Chorus Rocks! Middle Eastern Drums Rule!

International Night, March 9, was a great success. The Eastvalley PTA did a fabulous job of coordinating the tables, food, and entertainment to make this one of the most enjoyable events of the year! Thanks to all the families who participated by attending, and special thanks to those of you who shared your cultural heritage with the Eastvalley community.

The Eastvalley Eagle Chorus began the evening's entertainment with our National Anthem, The Star Spangled Banner, and then sang Frere Jacques as a 4-part round with xylophone and metallophone accompaniment. They continued with a tribute to our troops, You Are Our Heroes. They concluded with Wind on the Hill, followed by a powerful rock song with an anti-drug message, My Mind is Mine! As always, the chorus sounded terrific.

Next was an exhibition of Middle Eastern Drumming performed by several Eastvalley students. In the near future, I hope to post a video of the drum performance.

Eastvalley Eagle Chorus Flies High at Festival

The Eastvalley Eagle Chorus rose to the occasion at the 2007 Georgia Music Educators Association Performance Evaluation Festival, held on February 15, 2007. The chorus sang brilliantly on their two selections, Wind on the Hill and One Wish. All three judges awarded the chorus the highest score possible, Superior, for their spectacular achievement. Sadly, the chorus rating was lowered to Excellent due to a "rules violation;" we had no one to play the Soprano Recorder accompaniment on one of the songs, which violated the rule that all written parts would be played/sung. Still, the chorus is proud of their beautiful sound. It is becoming rare to find a chorus with such a light and gentle tone quality.

Eastvalley Eagle Chorus, we are proud of you!

Thank You

Dear Eastvalley Chorus and Chorus Parents:

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for a wonderful year.  We accomplished quite a bit in a very short amount of time.  The Chorus got an Excellent at Festival, we performed at International Night and recorded a song for our troops.

We have enjoyed working with each and every student.  Those students leaving Eastvalley for East Cobb or other schools, we wish the very best.  To our returning students, have a wonderful summer and we will see you next fall.

Mr. Bernard and Mrs. Steinheimer
