Middle School Concert Ladies Photos by Terrance Moran/The Connection
On Thursday, Oct. 16, South County High School presented its Fall season choral concert titled “At the Water’s Edge.”
With accompaniment by pianist Mike Langlois South County featured six choral arrangements under the direction of Jennifer Willard. Alison Sail and David Gigrich provided lighting and sound for the evening’s concert. Each of the five South County Choral groups performed two selections and all the choral groups were combined to Sing "Like a Mighty Stream" to close out the program.
South County’s has five choral groups. There are three middle school groups – Concert Ladies, Men’s Chorus, and Ladies Select. Together there are 110 students participating at the middle school level. The two high school choral groups have 60 members broken between the Symphonic Choir and the Chamber Singers. Membership in the Chamber Singers is achieved through auditioning and ability to site read music and perform without accompaniment.
Jennifer Willard of Lorton is the Director of South County's High School choral program. She organizes a choral program every school quarter. The next choral program will be held on Dec. 9.
