Meadowlark Elementary School’s Choir and the SCCC Choir perform a song together. This is the first year for the elementary school to have a choir. The college choir will go to their choir concert later in the week to perform as well. The two groups sang a KiSwahili song that included actions and rhythm.
Obadiah Barnett, sophomore music major, plays a solo at the beginning of “A Cambridge Carol” by Vince Gassi. Barnett learned to play percussion just for concert band because they didn’t have enough in that section.
