Men's Chorus

Men's chorus - What exactly is it?

The Joliet West Men's Chorus is a seasonal group which is open to guys of any skill level who are interested in singing.  This group both gives guys a chance to sample choir and decide if taking a choir class might be of interest and/or creates an outlet to make some great music.

The Men's Chorus learns large amounts of the music by ear, and gives only an introduction to how the choir classes function, but understanding the standards and methods of choir is extremely valuable.

When does it meet?
Men's Choir will meet in the November and December of 2022

When/where does the Men's Chorus perform?
* The Winter Choral Concert
* The Songs of the Season Holiday Benefit dinner at the Jacob Henry Ballroom

What if I don't enjoy this?
This group is designed to give a taste of the choral styles of Joliet West, if you do not enjoy yourself, you may elect to not come the following weeks.  There is no long term commitment, obviously, we hope you have a great time and want to make choir a bigger part of your life.

What if I do want to join choir?
For gentlemen, the journey usually begins with Mixed Chorus, which meets period 1.  If your schedule allows for it, you could join as soon as second semester this year.  Joining mid-year would mean compensating with the understanding that you are semester behind your classmates, but it is certainly something we can work through.  

The Concert Choir is available by audition.  Auditions are in February/March for the following year.  Moving directly into Concert Choir requires music reading skills.  If you are interested in this option, please have a conversation about it with Mr. DeBoer and he could advise you on whether Concert Choir or Mixed Chorus would be a better fit for your curricular needs.
