Over seventy talented young musicians came together from across the state to entertain FFA members, advisors, and guests during the state convention, performing at several convention sessions. This is a select group of FFA members.The chorus participants were selected by application and audition tapes by the State Chorus Director, Mr. Peter Engh, Director of Vocal Music at Westby High School.

“The first time these students practiced together was at the State FFA Convention. They begin rehearsing the first morning of the convention and are performing in only a short time after that. Truly, they are an exceptionally talented group,” says Cheryl Zimmerman, State FFA Executive Director. Additionally, the State FFA Chorus represents the Wisconsin Association of FFA at the Wisconsin State Fair in West Allis in August. The chorus performs over a four-day span at events during the fair.
