Sounds of Music The halls were alive with the sound of music as the choir program continued to expand. VVhen I first came to Oak Grove three years ago, there were bare- ly enough students for two choirs. Now with the stu- dents becoming more in- terested in the choir pro- gram, we have grown to four separate choirs, said Ms. Shipps, choir director. The choir has performed for the community at Oak Grove Elementary, Pine Forest Elementary, the Good Samaritan Village, and Trinity Court Nursing Home. The Christmas concert proved to be the choirs' big- gest production. We spent endless hours of practicing, but it paid off as the Christmas concert was a success. said Lisa Laramee, after the December 11 perform- ance. This year was the first year for the choir program to participate in Madri- gals. This particular pro- gram was developed for students who were natu- rally talented and above other students. I was kind of nervous to try out because I had never been in choir before. I think I caught on pretty well for a beginner, said Mike An- derson. The Madrigals perform- ed their first live concert May 14. This concert was the first for jazz music. At first we had a lot of trouble harmonizing with each other. The jazz music moved much faster, but was fun, said J oe Wade. With the increase and success of the program, the choirs had a fulfilling year. Vocol clubs 93
