Joseph Docken, a Central Sophomore, has been accepted into the All State Choir!
Joe has been accepted into the Tenor/Bass choir as a Bass 2, the lowest part they can sing. This will be his first year in the all state choir, and he will have one additional year to get in again as an upcoming senior. Joe sings bass in choir and is the bass section leader. Joe is also involved in speech, band, and theatre.
Students in high school bands, choir, and orchestras audition for an All-State spot in March. Judges listen to the students, evaluating them on their overall musicianship and technique. In mid-April, the MMEA All-State Committee chooses the final rosters considering scores and MMEA’s placement policies. 565 students are selected for the seven All-State groups.
Joe will attend camp in August where he will meet a guest conductor and attend long hours of rehearsals and sectionals. Although the major focus during the summer camp is developing advanced technique and making music, a full schedule of recreation and social activities gives the students an opportunity to relax and develop new friendships.
The August concert is the result of great dedication and commitment by some of the most talented young musicians in Minnesota. All of the young musicians meet again in February to perform at Orchestra Hall as part of the MMEA Midwinter Clinic.
