GHS is making music

GMS Choir

The Garretson MS/HS Fall Band Concert was held on Tuesday, November 19, with director Nick Sittig at the helm. The Garretson MS/HS Fall Choir Concert was held Monday, November 25 with Erika Brown directing.

During the Middle School portion of the choir concert, students used basketballs to depict rhythm, quarter notes, and half notes.
“I was inspired by groups like Stomp and the Harlem Globetrotters,” said Brown.

The High School students performed the “Star Spangled Banner” using both voice and American Sign Language, and the twelve students who represented Garretson at the Big East Honor Choir and at All-State Chorus performed one of their pieces, “The Pasture.”

The next opportunity for the community to enjoy the music of the Garretson School students will be on Monday, December 16 with the Pie & Ice Cream Social, a holiday treat.
