Books, Music, and Misc. What More Could You Want?

On December 6th, our Music Saints put on an entertaining performance at Barnes & Noble. Everyone came in their holiday best, hoping to start spreading some cheer as the holiday season grows nearer.

The jazz choir kicked off the show at 10:00 a.m with a stunning performance. The concert choir followed up with a few songs, including Go Tell it on the Mountain, In the Bleak Midwinter, and Breath of Heaven. The Jazz Band performed at 11:00, and the Concert Band performed at noon.

Friends, family, and customers alike crowded around the young musicians to watch the performance. Their melodic tunes could be heard throughout the store, instantly putting smiles on everyones’ faces. The concert benefitted not only the audience, but the Music Saints, too: a percent of all purchases made at Barnes & Noble would be donated to the music department when a flyer was presented.

Overall, the performance was very entertaining. Unsuspecting customers received quite the treat when they came to the store. Our school has a fantastic and extremely talented music department that’s certain to put a little bit of happiness in anyone’s day.
