A massive BRAVO to our incredible secondary chorus members who performed tonight at the 2026 All County Secondary Chorus! Tonight was a beautiful reminder of why music matters. Our secondary students joined voices for this special concert, and the result was stunning. Whether it was the delicate harmonies of the Treble Choruses or the energy of the Mixed Chorus, these performers proved that extraordinary things happen when we work together in harmony.
We are so proud of your dedication, your voices, and the way you represented our schools.
Special Thanks To:
Heather Bice, Choral Director at Ridgeview High School, for her tireless work in organizing and putting this entire event together.
Our amazing choral directors across the county. Your incredible work with our students was reflected in every note of tonight’s performances!
Our distinguished guest conductors for their expertise and for bringing out the best in our singers.
Christopher Gugel, our Fine Arts Specialist, for his leadership and continued support of the arts in our schools.
Bravo to everyone involved in making this amazing night happen! 👏✨
