Many sounds of Christmas at H-M-S

A variety of Christmas-themed music was performed by Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn High School vocal and instrumental students during the winter concert on Dec. 11.

The concert choir sang "Christmas Gloria," "Fum, Fum, Fum," "Bring Us Hope" and "The Little Drummer Boy." "Bring Us Hope" was accompanied by cellist Faith Wittrock, of Sioux Falls.

"Santa Baby" and "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch" were performed by the jazz band. Featured soloists were Blake Meendering on tenor saxophone, Annika Overmire on trumpet and Abby Kunzman on trombone.

The concert band played "The Many Sounds of Christmas," "Poem" and "Novena," and choir members and the audience joined the band for the traditional "Christmas Sing-a-Long."

The choir is directed by Kristi Daggett and the instrumental groups are directed by Andrew Yenzer.
