What’s up, Titans? Did you happen to stop by Union’s choral performance last Thursday? If you didn’t, here’s a quick recap of what happened that night! 

This choir concert took place at 7 P.M at Union’s Auditorium. Many people came to watch their powerful Choir perform for them, “it was such an empowering atmosphere,” said Eli Theissen, a Tenor 1 in the Men’s choir.  The concert kicked off strong starting with the Women’s Ensemble who sang two pieces, Sing, Sing, Sing and Las Amarillas, both songs of which were sung purely in acapella. Las Amarillas means “The yellow ones.”

As their beautiful blended songs ended, the Union Choir’s talented pianist Lori Collier played a classical piece as the Men’s choir got up on the stage. They sang three songs starting off hardy with Hold Out Your Light, followed by The Steady Light, and ending with Joshua that had a small duet by Kaden Allington and Ethan Knerr. Afterward, the treble choir, combined treble choirs, and the select treble choir sang their five beautiful soft songs featuring soloist Reina Guinn’s rich soprano voice, and a beautifully blended trio including Payton Main, Jada Lockett, and Natalie Green. A nice addition to this concert was Mr. Vaughn’s 8th-grade choir from Pacific Middle School!

The choir concert ended with three powerful and unique songs sung by Union’s select concert choir which sang Animal Crackers where they imitated animals, Esto Les Digo in Spanish, and Gede Nibo which was a spiritual Haitian piece. 

That about wraps up this amazing first choir concert of the year. Be sure to watch this concert on Union High Schools Choir YouTube when it comes out! The next concert will be sometime soon in December so get ready to rock for some jolly Christmas music!
