Spring Concerts 2018

This past week Harrold Middle School and Hempfield Senior High School performed their spring chorus concerts.  Chrissy’s concert was Thursday night, and she was in both the 7th grade chorus and honors chorus.  The band director was lively and creative and really brought a good time to the stage.  It was obvious that the kids enjoyed participating and the audience enjoyed every song. I was proud and excited to be there. My favorites were “What a Wonderful World” by the Honors Chorus and “Cripple Creek” by the 7th Grade Chorus. They ended the program with the 8th graders singing “We Go Together” and they left the stage in pairs.  This was their very last program at the middle school. Can’t wait to see what Chrissy’s class does next year!

Friday night was the high school program, and Autmn was in this one as a sophomore.  There was a marked difference in the performances from middle to high school.  Each equally wonderful but the high school numbers had a fairly high degree of professionalism and for the most part were serious.  The one that seemed the most fun was “Toon Tunes”, which were snippets of the theme songs of several popular cartoons, including the Peanuts Theme.  I could see Autmn eyeing me up, knowing I’d love it.  I almost turned on my ringtone so it could play along! 

It’s so great to see the girls perform, and see the dedication and joy and pride they have in participating.  I love these two girls!  Way to go, chick-ies!  Good job!  Love you!
