Amazing

Sharada Weaver's (Northwestern CVPA Choir) reflection about her experience in the High School Choir Invitational:

"Being able to participate in this collaboration of choirs was a privilege. Every choir, every voice and every director have their own technique for singing, learning and teaching, so it’s difficult to assemble complex music when you meet the other music groups that day! At the end of the night, however, our hard work and dedication was shown immensely, igniting each choir’s diversity, vitality, and love for music. The wonderful directors challenged us to connect with the pieces we were singing to create a story for the audience.

In addition to the music we worked on, we had the opportunity to see the a part of the opera UMD students are performing! It was amazing to watch and learn from the singers, because of the great techniques they demonstrated.

I am very happy to be a part of a performing arts program, because I gain knowledge from amazing opportunities like this one. The choir invitational was an outstanding setting to absorb the talent University of Maryland holds. I hope there will be many more events to come that let us expand our minds, build ourselves to a higher level, challenge ourselves in music and grasp the value that music has."
