Third Row: Regular Concerts Show Versatility Assuming an increasingly larger role in the cul- tural life of the school, the Concert Choir participated in several assemblies and evening performances throughout the year. In addition to' its traditional part in the Thanksgiving, Christmas, Brotherhood, and National Honor Society Assemblies, the group pre- sented a lively program in the first exclusively Con- cert Choir Assembly. Selections on this program in- cluded two popular folk songs, adaptations of nursery rhymes, and an arrangement of a poem by Robert Frost. Eveninglconcerts provided a Worthwhile oppor- tunity for students to enjoy live performances of classical and semi-classical works. Each day during school spirit week, a special tape recording of NorthWood's Alma Mater preceded the morning announcements. In February, twenty-five members of the group entertained appreciative youngsters at the Jewish Home for Retarded Children. As in previous years, the Choir participated in Choral Day at Maryland University, where North- wood's Choir received a top rating. Closing the year, the Choir sang at Baccalaureate and Graduation.
