While many may agree, as the song says, “The weather outside is frightful,” but junior and senior high music students attempted to bring some delightful sounds of the season to the Belle Plaine High School gym Wednesday night. The junior high jazz band, concert band and choir joined the high school jazz band, choir and concert band for some traditional and some new holiday music.
Jack Schlesselman directed the junior high bands, Christine McFate conducted the junior high chorus and the high school groups were directed by Brad Allen. Jolene Blanchard accompanied the high school chorus and Dennis Kurriger recited “Twas the Night Before Christmas,” accompanied by the junior high concert band.
