Singer Resource page
LORD OF THE RINGS
Here you will find all the resources you need to be successful this season. Please bookmark this page on your device (computer, phone, or table) so you can find it every time you practice. A reminder that singers must have their sheet music and a pencil at every rehearsal. We will be singing this music memorized, and singers will not need to bring their music to the dress rehearsal or concerts.
IMPORTANT NEW INFORMATION:
Both of the above sheets are your most important resources for concert week. The first is our schedule (including drop-off/pick-up windows), and the second include detailed instructions for drop-off/pick-up, with maps, parking information, and pictures to help!

SHEET MUSIC & PRACTICE TRACKS
Below are the 6 movements in which the youth choir sings! The name of each movement is linked to the individual sheet music for that piece. Underneath each title, you will find the description of page numbers/measure numbers sung, and a link to “listen.” Please note that these tracks are less than perfect—they’re what we got from the orchestra, but at least ONE doesn’t perfectly match the music. However, they are very helpful for memorization and for getting a general feel for the music! Feel free to listen and practice with these; we will make sure any MAJOR differences are drilled down in rehearsals.
