Amongst many things going on at Dexter High School during the fall season, a large number of family and friends showed up to the DHS Auditorium this afternoon to listen to the Dexter Choirs perform in their Fall Concert.  

Every year to begin the Fall Concert, the seniors are announced. Choir Director Mrs. Jamie Sepulvado took the microphone and introduced the eighteen seniors who are currently enrolled in at least one of her choir classes. Each senior was announced one by one as they walked down the aisle holding a candle and met to form a senior group on the risers.

Mrs. Sepulvado commented on this year’s seniors, “I’m truly going to miss this class of incredible seniors. I only wish them the very best in the next chapter of their lives. I know their future is bright. My advice to them is to keep their music close. There will be days of rejoicing and days of sorrow but through everything, the music they have inside them will help them through it all. It was an honor to be your director for two years.”

After the recognition of the seniors, the Concert Choir and Women’s Ensemble joined each other on stage as they performed four songs together. Soloists including: Paula Hagy, Jason Killian, Linda love, and Oliver Warren.

Following the Concert Choir and Women’s Ensemble was Chamber Choir. Chamber Choir performed four different songs with soloists including: Rachel Putnam, Jacob Murdock, Shayna Bess, and JT Putnam. Mrs. Sepulvado noted that the Chamber Choir consisted of eighty-one members, who for the most part, are very young but talented members.

Closing the concert, Honors Choir came onto the stage to perform four songs. Their first song was a familiar song to everyone in the crowd as they sang The Star-Spangled Banner.  Soloists among the Honors Choir included: Jon Rodgers, Logan Quertermous, Christin Sitzes, Reale Cook, Noah Raines, Noah Kronk, Emily Long, and Brooks Propst.

Despite how beautiful of a Sunday afternoon it has been outside, there was hardly an empty seat in the Dexter High School Auditorium as these talented choirs took the stage under the direction and accompanist of Mrs. Jamie Sepulvado for the 2012 Fall Choir Concert.
