About Honor Choir
Honor Choir was established in 2012, and is an auditioned choir for dedicated middle and high school singers who are ready to take their musicianship to the next level.
Honor Choir auditions consist of a very brief, low-stress audition/chat with the director. Students may sing any song of their choosing (16-32 bars or 30-60 seconds). Auditions are brief and fun, no need to be nervous!!
In this group, students combine a love of singing with a pursuit of excellence, while building community, teamwork, and a spirit of service.
Schedule: Meets weekly from Sept through mid-to-late May. The studio is closed for major holidays.
Location: Offered at one of our studio locations in Boyertown, PA.
Grades: 7-12, younger students considered by the director
Class size: Ranges from 8 to 20 students
Honor Choir is a part of Collective Harmony, our umbrella term for our vocal ensembles.
Performance Opportunities: This class performs several times per year at studio events (such as the Snowfall Serenade and our Annual Cabaret) and in the community.
Performance Attire: Honor Choir Shirt, black pants, black socks and shoes (no sneakers unless there is choreography)

![Honor Choir performing at Music Studio of Patricia Keith]()
We started with The Music Studio of Patricia Keith with a camp in 2021, We’ve been hooked ever since! The camps we’ve done are so fun and always end with an amazing performance that really showcases what the kids have learned. My daughter joined Treble Choir and since aged out and now apart of their Honor Choir with many events to see them all perform, offering remarkable opportunities throughout the year. We’ve done private lessons as well, they have thoughtfully organized recitals that work around busy schedules. All of the studios staff have been supportive, most impressive and helpful. The way we get to see the confidence grow in these kids is really something to experience! If your kids are showing interest or notice they’re meant to be on stage! This is the place to see them shine!

I was a student at The Music Studio Of Patricia Keith for 3 years. In those years I learned and grew so much!!! I was a part of the honor choir and berks vocal arts as well as a cappella and took private lessons with Miss Trish too! So I was very involved! The teachers and students are all so very dedicated to working together to create beautiful music!! I will definitely be back to help in the future!!
