All-Northwest Choir picks two LHS singers

For the first time in four years, the All-Northwest Choir selected two LHS singers to perform in a concert in Washington. Senior Emily Thomason performed as an alto II in the Treble Choir and senior Faith Bigler participated as an alternate in the All-Northwest Choir.
   They flew to Bellevue, Washington, Friday, Feb. 17.
  “We [went] there [to] meet with other people that made it, rehearse with them, and make music together as we bond!” said Thomason.
   The concert took place at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue two days later, Feb. 19, after the singers had practiced and perfected their performances.
  “I [was] super-excited to meet new people from several different states, learn new techniques and create a performance of a lifetime,” said Thomason.
   Julie Burke, LHS choir director, said she feels that both of the young singers are very deserving of this opportunity. They have worked hard to improve their vocal instruments throughout their junior high and high school careers, Burke added.Emily Thomason and Faith Bigler
