The Glacier High School Choral Department will present “Come Travel With Me” Tuesday, October 20 at 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm in the Glacier High School Performance Hall.

The concert will open with all of the choirs on stage for an exciting performance of an African celebration entitled “Jabula Jesu.’’  The melody is based on a Zulu folk song.  The Glacier Girls will continue the concert with “Dry Your Tears, Afrika” sung in the Mende language.  The select women’s ensemble, Glacier Breeze, will change the pace with an arrangement of the jazz classic, “Tuxedo Junction.” The Glacier Men will continue the travel theme with the 1960’s hit “Five Hundred Miles.” The Glacier Echoes will present a variety of selections including “Hernando’s Hideaway” and Michael Buble’s “Haven’t Met You Yet.” The hauntingly beautiful “Famine Song” will be performed by the Advanced Women’s Choir.

The Glacier Concert Choir and the Flathead Concert Choir will combine for the grand finale of the evening concert.  “It is so exciting to work with Flathead’s director, Jennifer Stephens, and her talented students.  The audience is in for a treat,” says Sandee Sauer, the Glacier High School Choir Director.
