CRESTVIEW — A group of Crestview High School chorus students was among Okaloosa, Walton, Escambia and Santa Rosa counties' lone representatives at the March 16 Florida Vocal Association state competition at Jacksonville University.
The singers qualified in November 2014 for the State Solo and Ensemble Music Performance Assessment, choral music Director Kevin Lusk said.
Crestview students’ ratings were:
•Duet: Maddie Anderson and Emily Jacobson: Superior
•Solos: Maddie Anderson, Emily Jacobson, Morgan Seip and Eli Rogers: Superiors
•Chanticleer and Destiny show choirs: Excellent
•Chanticleer Women: Superior
•Destiny Ensemble 2: Excellent
•Student Conductor Morgan Seip: Excellent
•The duet and the Chanticleer Women's ensemble were selected to perform on the Honors Showcase.
“Judges recommend outstanding performances for a special recital that performs for all participating schools,” Lusk said. “This is the second time that the Chanticleer Women's Ensemble has been selected.”
The Women’s Chorus will perform April 24 in the State Choral Music Performance Assessment competition in Tallahassee.
