High School Chorus welcomed Dr. Kevin Dibble to class on February 6, 2023. Dr. Kevin Dibble is currently the Director of Choral Activities at Houghton University in Houghton, NY. He earned his Bachelor and Master's Degrees from Houghton as well and earned a Doctor of Musical Arts Degree from University of Iowa in Choral Conducting.

Dr. Dibble worked with High School Chorus students both in small group lessons and in class. He also worked with Vocal Jazz during their class as well. Dr. Dibble worked with students on their Vocal Technique and was able to bring a unique, personal perspective to our Tenor and Bass singers.
