Phenomenon is an audition-based, all–tenor and bass show choir that focuses primarily on popular musical styles, including jazz, swing, and rock. This ensemble provides students with the opportunity to perform in a professional-level musical and dance setting while developing advanced vocal technique, choreography, and stage presence.
Students will gain a deeper understanding of vocal performance, movement, and ensemble collaboration through rehearsals and public performances. Choraleers frequently perform at community concerts and represent Neosho in competitions throughout the state.
Attendance at rehearsals, performances, and competitions is a significant component of the course grade. Students are expected to remain in good academic standing and demonstrate a high level of responsibility and character both in and out of school.
Students must audition before being placed in the course. Students must maintain Wildcat Standards and MSHSAA Eligibility. An activity fee of $350.00 will be collected from each student to cover their costumes and hotel fees. Fundraising opportunities will be provided to defer some of the costs.
