Title: Harmony Unites: A Fall Concert to Remember The anticipation buzzed through the air as families and friends gathered in the Fick Auditorium on a crisp autumn evening. Mr. Scott Lehrke, the esteemed choir director, stepped onto the stage, his presence commanding attention. "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen," he began, his voice projecting with warmth. "Welcome to our Fall Concert. Before we begin, I kindly ask you to silence all electronics and refrain from using them during the performance. Please enter and exit only between songs, and let the music fill the room without interruption. And when the concert concludes, please assist our custodians by taking your programs and belongings with you. Thank you." With his instructions delivered, Mr. Lehrke stepped back, allowing the stage to be claimed by the first performers of the night, the TTB Ensemble. Their harmonious rendition of "The Way You Do the Things You Do" set the tone for the evening, filling the auditorium with soulful melodies. Next up was the Treble Chorus, their voices dancing through the lively rhythm of "Tico Tico (no Fuba)" with precision and energy, arranged by the talented Sarah May. As the Treble Chorus took their bows and exited the stage, Cantemus and Men's Chorus stepped forward, their voices blending seamlessly in the spiritual classic "Ezekiel Saw the Wheel" arranged by Betty Jackson King. Cantemus then gracefully left Men's Chorus to captivate the audience with the haunting beauty of "Kelvingrove" and the stirring "No More Sailor Songs." With each performance, the audience was spellbound, but the night was far from over. Bel Canto graced the stage, their voices painting a vivid picture with "Orestias," "Eneza Upendo" featuring percussionists Josie Gerlach and Lainey Maniak, and the serene "Afternoon on a Hill." Cantemus returned, their voices lifting hearts with the solemn "Benedicamus Domino," the tender "Wild Mountain Thyme," and the exhilarating "Ghost Riders in the Sky." Then came the moment everyone had been waiting for: Concert Choir. Under the direction of Mr. Christopher Piela, they delivered a breathtaking performance of "Alleluia," "Sing Gently," and the lively "I’se The B’y," accompanied by trumpet, violin, and cello. As the final notes of "Born Free" echoed through the auditorium, the combined choirs of Bel Canto, Cantemus, and Concert Choir joined together. Their voices merged in perfect harmony as they sang "Homeward Bound" and "Hands are Knockin’," accompanied by percussionist Josie Gerlach. The audience erupted into applause, the sound reverberating off the walls as the three choirs closed the evening with the sentimental "Edina Alma Mater" by Roger Sims. With the concert concluded, the choirs shed their robes, revealing smiles of satisfaction and camaraderie. Most members of Concert Choir (including Tarun Varma, Miley Cyrus, Khalil Kaba, Evangelia Karoussos, Johnny Sprague, and Noura Khemakhem, who are the Seniors) eagerly made their way to Dairy Queen Grill and Chill for a well-deserved dinner, laughter and conversation filling the air as they reminisced about the unforgettable performance. In the quiet of the auditorium, Mr. Lehrke and the other directors exchanged proud smiles, knowing they had witnessed something truly special-a night where music transcended boundaries and united hearts in harmony.
