Chorus members rehearsed all afternoon with schools in the conference on five pieces of music and performed a concert under the direction of Dr. Jason Hawkins, the Assistant Professor of Choral Music Education at Western Illinois University. The Havana High School Chorus also performed Lunar Lullaby by Jacob Naverud as an individual choir feature. It was a great day of music making with choral students in our conference! Go Ducks!
