I'm in ninth grade and take chorus/choir at my high school. We learn a lot of technique considering that it's only a 50 minute class. We warm up every day and learn a lot about posture and breath control. We also sing all styles of music, form pop to gospel to songs in other languages such as German, French, and Italian. I've also participated in our school swing choir and college honor choirs that I tried out for through my school choir. For the honor choir tryouts I practiced after school one-on-one with my teacher and recorded an audition tape. I think the quality of the choir depends on what school you go to, because my best friend goes to a different high school and her choir isn't even near as good. I think that any high school choir is better than none and can be a very rewarding experience. I've met all of my best friends who also sing through my high school choir, swing choir, and honor choirs.
