On Thursday, March 2nd, all WHS Band and Choir students kicked off Music In Our Schools Month by performing in the Whitewater High School Chamber Music Festival. Student performances ranged from solos to small ensembles. Each event was performed for a clinician who then worked with the students, giving constructive criticism to help them improve as musicians. Choral students sang for Dr. Sharri VanAlstine and Mr. Brian Leeper and were accompanied by Ms. Kathy Schereck, Dr. Sarah Read Gehrenbeck, and Mrs. Karen Tordera. Band students played for Ms. Bianca Kue, Mr. Justin Steger, Mr. Dylan Ovanin, and Mr. Tim Hummel. This event was organized by WHS Band Director, Mr. Sam Averill and WHS Choir Director, Mrs. Karen Tordera.
Thank you to all family and friends who attended. A special thank you to Whitewater Music Parents Association for providing the dinner for all clinicians, accompanists, and directors as well as snacks for all of the student performers! Your support is appreciated!
