Shades of Blue Repertoire List 2017-18

It’s my end-of-school-year tradition to publish the repertoire my ensemble sang over the year. With my first year at GRCC in the books, here are the pieces Shades of Blue learned and performed.

For reference, in the Fall Semester Shades of Blue had one soprano, one alto, two tenors, and two basses. For winter semester, Shades of Blue had three sopranos, three altos, three tenors, and two basses. We had a consistent rhythm section for the year and were able to collaborate (*) with the GRCC jazz ensemble both semesters.
