A CAPELLA CHOIR The choir, under the direction of Mr. Fosso, consists of 116 members. This group is divided into three mixed choirs which meet first, second, and fifth period each day. The objective of the group has been the appreciation of good choral music and to develop skills in the art of singing. The project has been to put on three concerts: the Christmas concert and two Spring concerts. The group will sing in the Competition Festival and members will sing in the Spring Music Festival held in Everett. Backgrounds for the concerts have been beautifully set by Mr. Bernier and his stage crew. Soloists have been Lola Wolfe and Bob Meier. AHS FIRST CHOIR mj V V • « ,1 Jt V 1 X7%x % % J £ ' X A ® s %' .
