Welcome to the Brighton High School Choir Program’s Winter Concert! We are entirely virtual for this one. We are again using a paperless program, and you are all seeing this through a live stream, or pre-recorded.

Please explore the links in the program below. There is so much to learn about our composers, arrangers, and collaborators!

It has been a wild ride getting to this point, and I am so excited to have the opportunity to present a Choral Concert to you. I watched the faces of parents and friends at our Fall Concert in October. It reminded me how important the ability to watch your favorites, up here doing what they love to do, really is.

I am grateful for the performance opportunities we have - even if they are not what we expected them to be. We will continue to make lemonade out of the lemons we are given. I’m not sure I could teach a more important life lesson to these young people, and they remind me to be hardworking, positive, and joyful everyday. Enjoy the concert!
