We did a thing...
Since we weren't able to do a winter concert this year, we put together a few solos from some students who were willing to share their songs, combined with some of our favorite memories from last year. This has been a very challenging semester, particularly for choir, as we navigate the waters of virtual learning. One of the things that stood out the most is how we miss being together and singing together in the same space. Music isn't just about the notes on the page, it's about the voices and the individuals, and the energy that resonates through the music and the room when we work together to create an audible art. Here's to a new year! Out with the new, and back to the old! Wishing everyone a safe, healthy, and happy holiday season. Wow! What a crazy week this has been with the snow. I hope everyone has been safe and warm during this time. While I enjoyed a few days of...forced relaxation...this has certainly thrown us for a loop in preparing for our concerts!
Here is an update:
Tickets for both events are $5.00 for adults, $3.00 for students/seniors, and children ages 5 and under are FREE. Due to low participation, our talent show scheduled for this evening has been cancelled. We plan to reschedule in the spring. Please check back later for updates.
