32-1802 Jazz Pop Choir

This course advances the understanding of jazz and pop through rehearsal and performance of group repertoire in contemporary styles. Traditional choral skills of blend, balance, unison, and harmonic intonation, and articulation in swing, pop, and Latin genres are studied. Students learn to sing with a rhythm section, a cappella, as soloists, and in men’s, women’s, and mixed small groups. Independent practice, memorization, and weekly sectional rehearsals are required. An end-of-semester performance is scheduled, with additional performances possible subject to member availability.
