The singers stand in different sections based on the range of their voice. The sections are base, tenor, alto and soprano. The base would have the lowest note being sung whereas tenors would sing the second lowest notes. Altos are the second-highest notes in the parts of a song. The high notes in the song would be sung by sopranos.

Perk up and boost your energy by checking out the “Earth Day” performance presented by WCC music classes, which happens on Earth Day, April 22, 2025, in the Towsley auditorium from 7-8:30 p.m.
Upcoming and budding artists have invested their time, effort and hard work into this performance. During a recent weekly class, artists practice by warming up with body stretches and vocal exercises. Faculty member of performing arts, Michael Naylor, sings out as he reminds performers to “breathe and smile.”
“Our goal is to empower students to become activists and to create a life of sustainable action and responsibility to the planet,” Naylor said.
“The students are doing all the arranging of the music; they’re doing all the planning of the concert,” Naylor said. “The graphic design–they’re doing everything themselves. That’s the kind of commitment we’re going to need to change our world.”
Zoe Bailey, majoring in secondary education and an artist in the “Earth Day” performance, shared that the “overarching” theme of the performance is not necessarily “sustainability.” Instead, the goal is to highlight “ways in which we can better the Earth using perspectives of the globe.”
