Christmas Concerts (and MORE Christmas Concerts)

The last week of classes before the Christmas break was filled with various performances by the choirs, both formal and informal.

Chorale filled the entry of Friesen's Bigway (both physically and musically) when they went caroling. Thank you George Watson and the Bigway staff for making the time and space for us!

At the Christmas Concert on Sunday afternoon, Chorale, Women's Choir and Concert Choir presented a holy and moving concert to a  packed gymnasium. Here Kelsea McLean directs Chorale.
