Choir Camp
Choir Camp
Choir camp has become a TC West Choirs tradition. This 3-day event sets the tone for the upcoming choral school year. Camp is filled with team building activities and music that allows our students to get to know each other and find their home! Choir camp also allows for rehearsal of the staple songs for every school year with such titles as our "The Fighin' Titan" and our beloved holiday song of "All is Well" and our end of year song for our seniors, "Friends". This camp is an opportunity for our Seniors to lead and set an example for the program and TC West Senior High. This event typically takes place sometime during the first week of August. This event closes with a family style gathering/BBQ (still TBD) with parents/guardians in attendance to learn about the program, watch some team spirit unfold and fantastic music be made.

Solo & Ensemble Festival (District & State)
Solo & Ensemble Festival (District & State)
Solo & Ensemble Festival is managed by Michigan State Vocal Music Association providing adjudication for soloists and ensembles (20 students or less) at the district level. Adjudicators listen to, evaluate and provide helpful tips to students in their growth as a performer. The District Solo & Ensemble is local and for our school typically hosted at TC West HS. Soloists and ensembles must obtain a minimum score to move on to the next level or State Solo & Ensemble. Students then return for States with different songs and are assessed in their sight reading skills. At this level, those with top scores and perform at the highest level are selected to represent that site at MSVMA Top 10. MSVMA Top 10 is held at Michigan State University in May and celebrates the accomplishments of select soloists and ensembles!

Annual Awards Banquet
Annual Awards Banquet
Our Annual Awards Banquet is our end of year gathering in which we honor the accomplishments of our choral students with a focus on our seniors. This awards banquet is "student-led" with the choir council and is typically themed! One of our favorite gatherings of the year. This event is a "pot-luck" style event with each grade level bringing a specific portion of the meal.
