CHORAL CONCERTS Songsters Play To Appreciative Audiences The Fine Arts Department presented two concerts, spotlighting the various choral groups, in the first half of the school year. The fall concert was made up of the singing groups and a few numbers from the orchestra. Those choirs participating were the Apollinaires, the Madrigal Singers, the Mixed Chorus. A Capella Choir and the popular Male Quartet. Christmas Concert performers included all the above groups, plus the Concert Band, clarinet and rhythm section, and a brass ensemble. Songs in the concerts covered a wide variety. They ranged from the Apollinaires singing Maria from the film Paint Your Wagon to the Mixed Chorus with The Way We Were . The Winter Concert provided a chance for listeners to hear many of the old traditional Christmas carols. Both concerts were highly successful. Soloists and groups were outstanding, and the overflow audiences seemed thoroughly pleased. ABOVE: A Capolla choir performs at tho Fell Concert.
