On Decem- ber 16, 1976, a large audience attended and were thoroughly entertained by the annual Christmas concert. At the performance the Chorus sang the Messiah in its en- tirety. The Swing Choir lightened the mood by singing a more modern style of music, like Let There Be Peace on Earth, and Godspell. April 19, 1977, the Chorus and Band Spring Concert was presented. Several musical se- lections, which included, Sine Nomine, and Saints Bound For Heaven, were delivered by the mixed chorus. On May 2, 1977, the Swing Choir and Jazz Band had their turn to please the community. The Swing Choir again demonstrated their ability through melodies such as, One Tin Soldier, and Yesterday Once More. On March 22, the swing choir and soloists went to Madison for contests. Singing a German song Wohin , Tami Limmer received a first. The swing choir sang a Godspell medley with spirit and movements. The work they spent on this number paid off as they also received a first. 13
