GHS CHOIR STUDENTS ADVANCE TO PRE-AREA AUDITIONS

October 26, 2020 

GHS Choir

Five Granbury High School students and one alternate are advancing in the multi-level process to qualify for All-State Choirs.  The TMEA Region 30 auditions were held virtually on October 17, 2020.

Granbury students advancing to the next round are: 

  • Soprano 2:  Julie Smith, first alternate
  • Alto 1:  Hannah Swaim, third chair
  • Tenor 2:  Adam Stone, sixth chair
  • Bass 1:  Joshua Courtney, third chair; Jack Barefoot, eighth chair; Caleb Fisher, eleventh chair

All six were named to the All-Region Choir. 

Swaim, a senior, was selected for the TMEA All-State Women’s Choir last year. 

With the COVID-19 pandemic, the All-State process has been condensed to three rounds all held virtually.  For the first-round auditions, students were competing for only twelve advancing spots.  Only five will progress from the second round. 

The students are under the direction of Kendra Fisher and Kyle Wheatley.
