Duncan Creek Cardinal Choir
The Duncan Creek Cardinal Choir (DCCC) is the elite performing organization of Duncan Creek Elementary School and is comprised of approximately one-hundred talented fourth and fifth grade vocalists. Membership in the Chorus is determined through an audition process that evaluates each student’s ability to sing with a characteristic tone quality while successfully matching pitch. Participation in the Chorus allows students to create music on a higher level by concentrating more critically on tone quality, intonation, rhythmic clarity, and other elements of music.
The chorus rehearses regularly on Friday mornings from 7:45-8:40 a.m. On occasion, other morning rehearsals are scheduled as well. Additionally, the Chorus has two extensive rehearsals per semester. One rehearsal takes place during the afternoon of one of the students’ early release days and the other occurs on a Friday afternoon. For the 2014-2015 school year, the DCCC will perform two local concerts occurring near the conclusion of each semester.
The Duncan Creek Cardinal Choir was one of two elementary school choruses invited to perform at the Georgia Music Educators Association's 2013 in-service conference in Savannah. Our members put on a performance of a lifetime and represented themselves, Duncan Creek Elementary School, and Gwinnett County Public Schools in a very positive manner.

Auditions for the 2014-1015 edition of the DCCC will take place August 15-18 during the students regularly scheduled music special.
