Treble Chorus & Treble Plus
Be sure to schedule a placement hearing with us for this ensemble before purchasing.
Placement hearings can be scheduled for the 2022/2023 season. Registration will open in July.
If you have any questions in the meantime, please contact us at sing@animasingers.org or 630-858-2471.
Treble PLUS (by Anima staff recommendation only) also rehearses on Sundays from 3:15-4:15pm.
Treble PLUS choristers benefit from an extra hour of rehearsal time on Sunday afternoons. The first 30 minutes is devoted to their own skill-building, and the second 30 minutes enables them to join the older Concert choristers on more advanced repertoire!

Q&A
What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
