Middle School Choirs Share a Joyful Evening of Music
Our middle school choirs shared a wonderful evening of music as part of the Winter Concert Series!
Students from the 6th Grade Choir and the combined 7th and 8th Grade Choirs performed a warm and engaging program that reflected musical talent and collaboration.
The concert featured familiar favorites and seasonal selections, including We Need a Little Christmas, Candles, Candles, and The Twelve Days of Christmas. Across the program, students demonstrated strong ensemble singing, expressive solo moments, and a shared joy in making music together.
Bravo to all of our student singers for a memorable night of music and celebration, and thank you to the families and community members who joined us in support of the arts at Wilmington Friends School.
