Dear DCMS Choir Families,

Welcome to the new school year! We hope you’ve enjoyed a restful summer and are as excited as we are for what’s ahead in the DCMS Choir program.

We’re thrilled to introduce our new Assistant Choir Director, Nick Dell'Anno, who brings a wealth of experience and a deep passion for choral music, and we’re confident she will be an incredible asset to our team. Please join us in welcoming him to the DCMS family!

Our choir program is guided by three core themes: Passion, Purpose, and Building a Culture of Respect. We believe that these principles will help us not only grow as musicians but also foster a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone feels valued. 

We have an exciting fall semester ahead with several special events. First, we’re excited to announce the return of the Houston Tidelanders to DCMS for a workshop in the fall semester in addition to our normal UIL activities. There is much more to be excited about, which will be revealed for classes as the semester moves on. 

To stay updated on all choir-related information, please make sure to regularly check your email and Schoology. We’ll be sending out important documents and correspondence through these channels.

Here’s to a fantastic year filled with musical growth and shared achievements!

Go Mavs!

Warm regards,

Natalia Douris and Nick Dell'Anno
