Rockwall-Heath High School a cappella choirs take top honors at contest

ROCKWALL/HEATH, TX (Dec. 6, 2022) Rockwall-Heath High School a cappella choirs did an outstanding job this past weekend at the Acatex A Cappella contest.

Beyond earned 4th place at the semifinals and advanced to the finals. Infiniti earned first place, Best Choreography and Best Vocal Performance at the semifinals and advanced to finals where they won FIRST place! They also earned Best Choreography again at finals.

Infiniti began at the school’s inception in 2005 as a show choir and rebranded into an a cappella group in 2018. Made up of students in grades 9-12, the singers all have choral experience. Students have to go through an audition as well as maintain membership in another choral ensemble.

Infiniti performs at RHHS concerts and events throughout the year as well as local and national a cappella competitions. They have competed in ICHSA each year since 2019, earning top placements and their first trip to Finals in New York City in 2022.

Infiniti will be releasing their first single, “I’m Coming Round” in the very near future. Infiniti hopes to release more recorded music and will continue to compete in live competitions as much as possible.

Beyond was established at Rockwall-Heath High School in 2020 as an all treble a cappella group. Comprised of 9-12 grade students, they are all members of a larger choral ensemble and go through an audition process for a spot in Beyond. They perform at Heath concerts and events around the DFW area. They have competed in competitions such as ICHSA and Acatex.

Beyond will be releasing their first single, “Falling Water” in the very near future. They hope to record more music, and they are excited to compete live at ICHSA this year.
