its iii r im Q ii 15 trumpet player. Other choir mem- bers were know to have said, Let's just beat Capital this year! Melissa Cul- pepper remarked, They want revenge, we want success. And that's exactly what they worked for. Capital Singers to me has been a way to express the Capital Code of Ex- cellence-there's nothing that can compare to the closeness that you feel. Hopefully I have done my best to keep up the tradi- tion, expresses Martin Prows. Shane Russell, alto saxo- phone player, felt that Singers is a great opportunity for us band people like myself and Frank Young, to get in- volved with the sing- ing aspect of the mu- sic department. Paul Seideman re- plied that, ult really gives you a chance to be important. Eveyone is as valu- able as everyone else. And Don Allers, president, said that, The exper- iences we gain from Capital Singers and the people involved are invaluable. The group becomes so close throughout the year that the satis- faction of being the best comes less from the success itself than from the people we're sharing it with. Tears trickled down the cheeks of the members as hugs were exchanged be- tween 3l people who were now family- singing in harmony forever, in their voices AND hearts. .'z Taking a short nap, Don Allers waits for his turn to play, Giving Kevin Harper the eye, Nancy Riley ponders the idea of shooting him.

During the hour rehersal, the director had us sing the individual parts over and over. She drilled into us that to be the best we must work ourselves IOOWQ. The fall concert in early November be- gan a long list of ac- tivities for the Acco- pella Choir, directed by Mrs. Linda Schmidt, They spent an enjoyable winter weekend in McCall preparing for a busy Christmas Season. December was spent performing for sever- al groups, and the new year brought su- cessful perfor- mances at the BSU festival, rehearsals for the musical con- certs, and, perhaps the highlight of the year, a trip to Pasco, Washington and the Spokane area to per- form concerts and participate in a coral competition. Shelia Cole stated, Acco- pella is something for everyone, it seems like this year we've been one big family thanks to the mem- bers and Mrs. Schmidt. Accapella was an award win- ning group which united its members for a profitable year. Some students grumbled when they first realized the ef- fort needed to be number one, but in the end they all real- ized that giving their all was the only was to overcome medio- cracy. lO8 Accapella or , x-V i A17 'C .jjilf
