Choral Program

Involvement in music classes provides avenues and opportunities for artistic expression and the discovery of hidden talents while promoting self-confidence, individual growth, and leadership among our students. Our music students benefit from a strong sense of community while learning valuable life lessons in teamwork and leadership.

Membership in the Bishop England High School Choral Program provides memorable and fun experiences with fellow musicians, opportunities for significant personal and musical growth, and pride of membership in a fine arts department committed to excellence. The choral music program at Bishop England includes courses during the school day and the Belting Bishops Club.

We structure the choir’s activities to serve our school, community, and fine arts curriculum. The Bishop England Choir is open to freshmen through seniors and is comprised of students enrolled in choral courses, as well as, Belting Bishop Club members. An Honors level, the Choral Ensemble, is available for students who make it through the audition process. The Bishop England Choir performs repertoire spanning a variety of musical styles, cultures, and historical periods. Students perform in fall and spring concerts, at sporting and community events, as well as provide liturgical music for school and community Masses. Seniors have an opportunity for a “spotlight solo” during the spring concert.

The Belting Bishop Show Choir (formerly known as Glee Club) is for all students who love to sing, dance, and perform music from musical theater and contemporary genres. Students who are unable to fir choir into their schedule are encouraged to join the Belting Bishops. Belting Bishops meets on Tuesdays after school from 3:00 to 3:45 pm. The Belting Bishop Show Choir is an extension of the Bishop England Choral Program and performs at each of the Bishop England Choral Concerts. The moderator is Mrs. Lovell.
