The Choirs at Arrowhead

The Directors

Over 450 students participate in the choral music program at Arrowhead High School. The five choirs at Arrowhead include Treble Choir, Baritone Chorale, Select Ensemble, North Concert Choir, and a music theater troupe called The Broadway Company.

Students in the choral program perform a wide variety of choral music styles, and participate in madrigal ensembles, barbershop quartets and men's and women's octets. Arrowhead High School students appear frequently with the Wisconsin State Honors Choir.

Selected by The Lorenz Corporation to participate in a music theater project, the choir produced several professional recordings for Lorenz. The Arrowhead High School Choir performed for the opening of Miller Park, Tommy Thompson's induction as the cabinet secretary for Health and Human Services, and for a Milwaukee appearance by President George W. Bush.

The choirs of Arrowhead High School are directed by Nancy Jorgensen and Catherine Pfeiler. The directors have taught together at Arrowhead High School for over 20 years. Catherine Pfeiler earned an undergraduate degree from Mankato State University and a Master of Music from Arizona State University. Nancy Jorgensen earned a Bachelor of Music degree from Alverno College and a Master of Music from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

The directors are the co-authors of two books, Things They Never Taught You in Choral Methods, published in 1995 by Hal Leonard Corporation, and From the Trenches, Real Insights from Real Choral Educators, published in 2003 by Lorenz Music Corporation.
