San Marcos High’s Enchante brings home the gold

Congratulations go out to San Marcos High School’s Advanced Women's Choir, "Enchante" for sweeping the awards at the May 14-15, 2010, Heritage Music Festival in Anaheim, CA. The choir received three awards and trophies. With a top score of 97, they earned the Gold Award in their division. They were recognized as Outstanding Choral Group over the other choral divisions; show choir, concert choir, chamber choir and women's choir. The 34 girls also received a special award not always presented at festival, the Adjudicator's Award, the only one presented at the festival which included high school concert bands, marching bands, jazz bands, orchestras and choirs. San Marcos was well represented. Congratulations!

“I'm proud of the musical and creative work and preparation the girls did this semester to receive these scores. On the trip, educators and other adults commented about their maturity and professionalism in all venues and I was extremely proud to be their teacher,” said vocal music teacher Carolyn Teroaka-Brady. She invites the public to enjoy the sounds of her award-winning students, “Please come to our Encore Concert Tuesday, May 25, 7:00 p.m. at San Roque Church, 320 Calle Cedro, and hear their music.”
