Choral music and other talents

Quickly dig out from the snow and get ready for a fantastic week of arts treats!

This Tuesday, March 25, at 7 p.m., the Stoughton, Wisconsin, High School Concert Choir gives a preview of their upcoming Carnegie Hall concert right here at Gull Lake High School. They're one of the finest high school choirs in the country, and we're privileged to be one of two stops on their way to New York--the only other stop being at the Western Michigan University choral department earlier in the day. The Choir’s director, Ryan Casey, is a graduate of Western Michigan University’s music school. In addition to teaching several choirs at Stoughton High School, he regularly performs solo and ensemble music in the Madison, Wisconsin area and in Chicago. Don't miss this unique opportunity to hear a great choir right here in Richland. And did I mention that the concert is free? It's a wonderful gift to the community.

Then save next Saturday night--and maybe get a ticket in advance--for the always fabulous annual Glitter variety show, presented by the Gull Lake High School PTO. The 18th (yes, 18th!) annual edition starts at 7 p.m., Saturday, March 29, at Comstock Auditorium. Reserved seats are available for $10; general admission is $8. For more information call Rona Evarts, 665-6521. Come one, come all to enjoy a great evening of entertainment by our most wildly talented neighbors and friends.
