One of our favorite nights of the year tonight--RHS Winter Concert!
The Concert Choir started off the concert.
Since I was playing, all these photos came from other parents. I did ask Jeremy (who had just come from running wrestling practice) to record a couple songs.
The choir stood in mixed formation, so even though both of our girls sang soprano this semester, they stood on opposite sides of the risers for the concert.
Annah accompanied the choir for the Alma Mater.
The Alma Mater was written by our current band director, Mr. Marchese, in his first year at Ridgeview.
Annah had a solo toward the end of Bridge Over Troubled Water.
The vocal jazz ensemble, Midnight Blues, really shone bright in the concert tonight. This group only in its 4th year, and is re-auditioned every year. It's completely extracurricular and they meet at 7:40 in the morning before school. This year the group has 2 freshman, 2 sophomores, 6 juniors, and 2 seniors. They work really hard, enjoy what they get to do, blend really well, and are sounding so good together. Super proud of them all!!

VIDEO: The Ladies of Midnight Blues did a feature number, and each of them had a short solo in it as well.
VIDEO: Sylvia had a very small [but super sweet] solo in Love Walked In.
The girls love all their music ensembles, and playing their instruments in concert band is high on the list. Sylvia loves her horn, and Annah was so excited to play her new clarinet tonight!
VIDEO: just a little bit of holiday festiveness...
It was such an enjoyable concert. We love our little community and all the kids and families in it!
