Specialist Groups
Selected choristers are nominated by their tutor to be auditioned for special parts in the Winter Showcase and Annual Concerts. Choristers who are selected to perform special singing, dancing, acting or speaking roles in the concert are members of the specialist group Stellata for the duration of the specific concerts rehearsals.
Other specialist groups include:
- Cantissimo - specialist group of choristers selected from Allegro and Avanti Levels
- Canto – specialist group of choristers selected from Prelude and Concert Levels
- Concert Dance Group - specialist dance group of selected girls from Concert Level*
- Danzare - specialist dance group of selected girls from Camerata
- Ballare – specialist dance group of selected girls from Performing Choir
- Bel Canto – specialist vocal group of selected girls from Performing Choir
* Please note - Concert Dance Group is auditioned halfway through the year and performs in one item at the Annual Concert. Unlike the other specialist groups, it does not have weekly classes.

Famous quotes containing the words specialist and/or groups:
“As a thinker and planner, the ant is the equal of any savage race of men; as a self-educated specialist in several arts, she is the superior of any savage race of men; and in one or two high mental qualities she is above the reach of any man, savage or civilized.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Belonging to a group can provide the child with a variety of resources that an individual friendship often cannot—a sense of collective participation, experience with organizational roles, and group support in the enterprise of growing up. Groups also pose for the child some of the most acute problems of social life—of inclusion and exclusion, conformity and independence.”
—Zick Rubin (20th century)
