Focused on Performance

Music at Western Michigan High School

When words fail, music speaks. God’s gift of music-ing (Eugene Corporan) is one of the most mysterious of all His blessings. He bestows this gift on each of us to varying degrees. It should never be forced but rather cultivated. It is our prayer to do just that amid the garden that is Western Michigan Christian High School. It is our aim to provide the tools for kids to express themselves musically.

Additionally, it is our vision that students leave with a good understanding of “We Not Me.”  Performing music with others is a beautiful reminder of service to each other and the impact that we have individually on the welfare of the whole.  Fully understanding the power that we each posses to shape the outcome is a direct parallel to the teachings of Christ and will impact all aspects of our students’ lives.

Music students at WMC will experience a wide variety of both sacred and secular genre.  It is important that students exit our program well equipped to handle the rigors of a college music department.  This includes exposure to standard large and small ensemble repertoire as well as solo literature suitable to the student's experience level.  We will accomplish these goals through a variety of local performance venues such as Warrior Weekend; the Christmas Collage Concert; church performances; Solo and Ensemble Festival and Band and Choir Festivals sponsored by the Michigan School Band and Orchestra Association and the Michigan School Vocal Music Association.   Our students will also experience National level competition through participating in a National Music Festival twice during their high school career.
