And the Stars Sang December 17, 2015


 UPDATE:  What incredible performances!  Overflowing crowds for both shows - and the musicians rose to the occasion.  I am so, so proud of everyone.  Check out this link for more photos by Pete Sauer: Holiday Concert 2015
The Glacier High School Music Department will present “And the Stars Sang” on Thursday, December 17 at 4 pm and 7 pm in the Glacier High School Performance Hall.  The Glacier High School Choirs under the direction of Sandee Sauer and the Glacier High School Chamber Orchestra under the direction of Sherry Simmons will join together in a festive collaboration of holiday music. 
Over 200 Glacier High School musicians will perform an amazing selection of songs that are sure to get everyone in the holiday spirit. The audience will enjoy beautiful arrangements of fresh new holiday works as well as perennial favorites, such as “White Christmas,” “Up On a Housetop,” and “We Three Kings.”
The program will open with all the musicians coming together in a wonderful rendition of Joseph Martin’s “Joy to the World” from the Morning Star cantata and will close with a rousing performance of the “Hallelujah Chorus" from Handel's Messiah. Glacier High School choir alumni are invited to join the musicians on stage for this beautiful and exciting holiday tradition.
