Chorus
DeLand's chorus program, led by Melinda O'Neil, is an exceptional program that has gained recognition throughout Florida. Recent performances include Disney's Candlelight, Winter Concerts, luncheons throughout Volusia County, regional and state Music Performance Assessments (MPAs), and in-school performances. In the 2009-2010 year, the choral program at DeLand High School sent 11 musicians to the statewide All-State competition, which is extremely rigorous. The choral program at DeLand High School includes the General Chorus, Men's Ensemble, Quintessentials, DHSingers, the Woman's Chorale, and the Concert Choir.

Famous quotes containing the word chorus:
“I’m fed up! Fed up playing Greek chorus to your rehearsed nightmare!”
—Samuel Fuller (b. 1911)
“For decades child development experts have erroneously directed parents to sing with one voice, a unison chorus of values, politics, disciplinary and loving styles. But duets have greater harmonic possibilities and are more interesting to listen to, so long as cacophony or dissonance remains at acceptable levels.”
—Kyle D. Pruett (20th century)
“He is a Presbyterian first and an artist second, which is just as comfortable as trying to be a Presbyterian first and a chorus girl second.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
