The purpose of the Needham Public School Elementary Honors Chorus is to provide a more advanced singing experience for 4th and 5th graders. The Elementary Honors Chorus will perform more challenging music than the typical non-select school chorus and will continue working on vocal development. The music performed will engage highly motivated singers who have demonstrated a commitment to developing their singing voice. The Elementary Honors Chorus will provide these selected students a locally accessible outlet for their talents with additional performance opportunities. This is one of our advanced elementary ensembles, along with the Honors Band and Needham Elementary String Orchestra (NESO).
