Choir

Caldwell’s upper school choral program is available to students in grades 6-12. Each year our choirs enjoy a number of performance opportunities, including special assemblies on campus as well as off-campus festivals and concerts.

The choirs in the Dialectic school are divided into Sixth Grade Choir and 7th and 8th Grade Choir. Occasionally these choirs are combined into one group for certain activities.

There are two choir electives offered at the Rhetoric level. Concert Choir is open to any 9th-12th grade student. No audition is required. Caldwell Singers is a new group beginning in the 2007-2008 school year. This is a small auditioned group of 12-20 singers. This ensemble performs various genres of music and is striving to perform in the community on a regular basis.

Students in both the Dialectic and Rhetoric choral ensembles learn to sight-read, use proper ensemble singing techniques and provide occasional solo singing opportunities. Each group is involved in the ACSI Music Festival.
