Introducing Samuel Hancock, Tenor Section Leader

Favorite Chorale Memory:

Getting to share the music we worked so hard on and the message of the gospel with others during Chorale tour, specifically Closing Prayer.

I’m looking forward to:

Whenever the songs really start to click and we can sing them with musicality, especially on tour. It’s great to see the hard work across all four sections blossom, and to witness how we can bond together in unity to create something truly moving for the purpose of the gospel

When we stopped at a playground on tour for a quick break. I had so much fun running around with everyone playing and enjoying the sun, the break, and each other’s company!

Introducing Elyza Self, Chorale Vice President!

Favorite Chorale Memory:

There’s been so many fun memories! I think my favorite is singing “Yet Not I” at the end of our spring tour! In that moment, you could look around and see your fellow classmates and musicians giving their all for the Lord!

I’m looking forward to:

Getting to serve and pour into the amazing people in Chorale! I’m also looking forward to making beautiful music together!
