A SMT News Report

The Dexter High School Choirs will guide a trip back through musical history during its annual Pop Concert.

The two nights of “Pop Goes Through The Years” will be held Monday and Tuesday, May 9 and 10, in the DHS Auditorium. The DHS Chamber Choir, Show Choir, Concert Choir, Choraliers and Men’s Choir will all be featured in two nights of concerts.

Each night’s concert will begin at 6:30 and tickets must be purchased in advance by contacting Dexter High School. Tickets are $6 per person.

DHS Vocal Music Director MaryRuth Boone stressed that each night will feature a different concert program, with the choirs, soloists and ensembles.

“This is always a special time for the students. They look forward throughout the school year for the annual pop concert, and it is always full of some wonderful acts. The students are creative, talented and hard-working, and I feel certain this year’s concerts will be a great time for all,” Boone said.

This year’s theme, Boone said, lends itself to a wide variety of great music through the years.

The Show Choir will feature the Tribute to Michael Jackson it will be performing in June on the choir’s concert tour of New York City.

Tickets for the Pop Concert must be purchased in advance by contacting Dexter High School at 614-1030. Tickets are $6 per person.
