Winter Concert Choir

The Middle School Choir performed four songs to begin tonight's winter concert. "How Far I'll Go" involved four 7th grade soloists, while "Stronger with Time" involved two 8th grade soloists. Over 70 middle school students take part in Choir, including 44 7th graders performing in a large concert like this for the first time.

Three different Belleville High School choirs followed this up. The Vocal Jazz Ensemble sang three pieces, including "Hallelujah" featuring Alex Grignano and Caitlin Johnson. The Women's Choir sang four more pieces, including "Fly" featuring Rachel Markhardt and Hannah Matteson as well as "Oh, Happy Day" with soloists Cierra Hayes and Anna Nolden. The night concluded with the 90+ member Concert Choir singing the final four songs. "That's Christmas to Me" featured soloists Mili Julian, Evan Reifert, and Mikaela Steckelis.

Tonight's performances would put anyone in the holiday spirit! Thanks to Mrs. Krueger for all of her hard work and to Kris Penniston, our accompanist, who was sensational as always.
