East Rowan Honors Chorus

The East Rowan Honors Chorus performed at the N.C. State Music Performance Adjudication on March 15 at Wingate University. The group performed in three different areas — men’s chamber choir, women’s chamber choir and mixed chamber choir. The three state adjudicators each awarded the highest honor of ‘superior’ to each group with the mixed group scoring straight 99s out of 100 possible points. The groups compete with grade 6 level music, the highest grade music for high school performers. This is the 20th year the groups have scored ‘superior’ at the state music performance. Dean Orbison is in his 22nd year as director of the group.
