The orchesta played a variety from 'The Greatest
Showman' and 'Triumphal March.'
Then the chorale, directed by Tim Searby, sang lovely
songs; a tribute to Judy Garland arranged by John Leavitt, Agnus Dei
from Requiem was very beautiful, and Acappella Overtures arranged by
Andy Beck.
The orchestra played the famous songs from 'Beauty and the Beast'
followed by the Chorale singers singing 'The Day of Resurrection'
and 'The Wide Missouri' arranged by Ruth Elaine Schram.
The concert ended with a strong note of 'God Bless
America' played by the orchestra and sung by the chorale.
Along with a fine performance, LAMS also announced
its 2019 scholarship recipients.
