Akita Higashi Junior High School

Six people who have been singing at the music club of Meitoku Elementary School in Akita A chorus formed with the desire to enter junior high school and continue singing. At first, I was not recognized as a club activity and practiced at a nearby community center, but by participating in the NHK contest jointly with Akita Minami Junior High School and winning a gold medal, I was allowed to practice at school, and the advisor was a vice-principal teacher. .. However, since there was no instructor, he practiced under the guidance of the member's mother. The following year, the number increased by two to eight, and the following year, the number increased by four to twelve. At the NHK competition, he won the gold medal at the prefectural tournament every year, but at the Tohoku tournament he could only win the silver medal. However, at the All Japan Competition, the 12 people in the third year of formation won the gold medal at the Tohoku tournament for the first time, and at the national tournament, the gold medal, the Nishinomiya mayor's prize, and junior high school, high school, general voice, mixed chorus I was able to win the Kawai Encouragement Award and the Triple Crown, which are sent to only one group from all categories of. From the following year, 6 people at the time of formation graduated, and since the 1st grade did not enter, it became an activity with 6 people, but as an OG, 2 high school students remain and 8 people remain, and in the All Japan Competition it is possible to advance to the Tohoku competition in the general section did it. The following year, two people graduated, but four first-year students entered and became an activity with eight people, and since one person remained as an OG, 11 people participated in the All Japan Competition and participated in the Tohoku competition. After that, the number of people graduating became larger than the number of people who could enter, and it became difficult for junior high school students to do activities alone, but since they are also active as OGs, they are sometimes called as guests for concerts in Akita, and their activities are continuing in detail.
