SERENADING PROVIDES PLEASURE Harmonizing for a barber shop sound, the Mellodears practiced after school once a week. Their first appear- ance came during the Christmas pro- gram singing “Silent Night.” Earning a first at music contest, Mellodears continued to practice for spring tour with the band. Triple Trio gained recognition at contest by earning second place. Four new members joined the group. Per- forming at the Christmas program and on spring tour the Triple Trio prac- ticed weekly to achieve their three- part sound. Four Sharps and a Flat sang “Good King Wenceslaus” for their Christmas special and performed for the spring tour. The three groups combined to dec- orate the gym and fill sacks of candy for the annual Christmas program. With spring came the annual spring tour. After weeks of practice the three vocal groups were ready to perform on tour with the band. “Blowin’ In The Wind” was selected by Triple Trio. Mellodears harmonized on “A Good Man Is Hard to Find” and “Oh Baby Mine.” “Jonah Swal- lowed The Whale” was sung by Four Sharps and a Flat. Both the female vocal groups com- bined at the end of May for a final performance. “Climb Every Moun- tain” was chosen by the senior class for graduation exercises.
