Choruses and ensembles (continued)

SCHOLARSHIP ENSEMBLES
Scholarship Ensembles are designed for highly motivated and advanced high
school students seeking a challenging experience. Auditions are in September,
and those selected receive full scholarships funded by corporate and foundation
sponsors. Members must make a commitment to weekly coaching sessions and
frequent performances. Scholarship Ensembles have performed in New York,
Boston, and at high schools and community events across New Hampshire,
including governors’ inaugurations and national showcase concerts. Selected
Scholarship Ensembles listed below will be formed based on the auditions.
ENSEMBLE POLICIES
Permission of the instructor or department chair is necessary for participation
in the sequenced instrumental ensembles. Participation assumes reasonable ease
playing your instrument. Placement auditions may be held during the first two
weeks of the school year to ensure a well-matched group.
