The choir claps during a song. Chorus teacher Rachel Carroll brought in district accompanist, Jamie Lorusso, to play the piano during the concert.

Most of the time, other classes make me feel overwhelmed and chorus has never made me feel like that. I also enjoy singing with everyone because I love how we all sound together as a group.
