MEEKER | The Meeker High School and Barone Middle School proudly present their holiday band and choir concerts for the Meeker community this month.
Music director Briana Williams announced that the Meeker High School band and choir will present their holiday concert on Monday, Dec. 17, at 7 p.m. at the Meeker High School auditorium.
The Barone Middle School holiday concert will be presented on Wednesday, Dec. 19 at 7 p.m., also at the Meeker High School auditorium.
All are welcomed and encouraged to attend.
Williams is pleased to share that more than 80 students are active in the middle school band and choir programs which is a major achievement for involving youth in the performing arts and cultural enrichment for the Meeker community.
The Meeker High School Band and Choir have 26 students engaged in instrumental and choral music opportunities. In addition to the fall and spring concerts, students of MHS and BMS music programs have performed at MHS football games and pep bands for basketball games.
MHS and BMS Students also audition for selections as members of the regional and all-state honor bands and choirs. Music students selected will be announced in the spring.
Community performances by the bands and choirs have included a show choir performance for the WREA annual meeting in September; a Halloween concert for the elementary school students; a concert for the ERBM Recreation and Park District Holiday Social and providing national anthems and music for special events such as Veterans Day ceremonies.
Meeker is most fortunate to have so many talented and creative students engaged in instrumental and choral music programs.
