H.R. No. 17 |
|
||
WHEREAS, The varsity chorale ensemble of Timberview High | ||
School in the Mansfield Independent School District has been | ||
invited to perform at Carnegie Hall in New York on March 17, 2024; | ||
and | ||
WHEREAS, This prestigious honor is awarded to only a few | ||
choirs each year, and it will be the varsity chorale's first ever | ||
concert out of state; during the event, the group will perform | ||
Mozart's Requiem; and | ||
WHEREAS, The Timberview High varsity chorale is an auditioned | ||
choir for students in the 10th through 12th grades; to become a | ||
member of the ensemble, students must demonstrate an advanced level | ||
of vocal technique, sight-reading skills, and performance | ||
practices; in addition to performing, students compete in contests | ||
and learn elements of music theory; the group benefits from the able | ||
leadership of Jason Forte, the director of choirs; and | ||
WHEREAS, Through their talent, hard work, and commitment to | ||
excellence, the young singers of the Timberview High School varsity | ||
chorale have earned their way to an event of enormous prestige, and | ||
their achievement is a great credit to Mansfield ISD and a source of | ||
pride to their families, friends, and fellow students; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas | ||
Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby congratulate the | ||
Timberview High School varsity chorale ensemble on being invited to | ||
perform at Carnegie Hall in New York and extend to its members | ||
sincere best wishes for a meaningful and memorable event; and, be it | ||
further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for the choir as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
House of Representatives. | ||
