Choir ❣😁

            The Bishop Anstey High School Senior Choir 





Choral singing consists of music sung in different parts ( bass, tenor, baritone, alto, mezzo and soprano) often in tutti (at the same time). It brings together persons of different races and cultures and exemplifies the idea that music has no boundaries and is for the enjoyment of all. 

The BAHS choir is near and dear to my heart. I entered the choir in form one and I am still a member to date.The choir is a way of relieving my stress and a form of musical expression. It teaches teamwork, the importance of hard-work, determination and commitment. This choir has become my family. I have met my best friends through the choir. I was given the opportunity to visit Wales, London and France because of this choir and I am forever grateful. The choir has been so successful because of the standard maintained over the years by its members. 

As a result of our hard work, we have been fortunate to be given opportunities to compete
in international competitions in Wales and travel to France and South Africa, performed
exceptionally well in local musical theatre productions, music festivals, at weddings, political
events, performed aside international stars and choirs as well local artistes and experienced
culture from all over the world. We have been one of the few local school choirs that has
achieved all of the above as well as regularly we have appeared on the front page of the
local newspaper. We have hosted our successful Christmas concert every year which the
public looks forward to and they often keep tabs on our performances throughout the year.
In 2017, we sang at the naming of Queen Janelle Commissiong Street to honour our fellow
hilarian Penny Commissiong and most recently, the Inauguration of Her excellency Paula
Mae Weekes. I absolutely love my choir.

 Are any of you a member of a choir?
