On Tuesday, February 7, the men’s and women’s choruses presented their annual Broadway Night and More program to a packed A. Ramón Rivera Hall. Outstanding solos, duos, and trios were interspersed full ensemble performances of songs from Broadway classics like “Guys and Dolls” to more contemporary favorites like “Hamilton” to pop culture favorites by Stevie Wonder and Bob Dylan.
There was a standing-room-only crowd on hand as students, faculty, staff, parents, and friends lined the aisles to hear the performances the students had been working on since September.
“Each soloist and the small ensemble singers learn and practice the extra pieces on their own outside of school,” said choral director Susan Emmanouilidis. “Additionally, they have a number of rehearsals with me, as well as with our pianist, Paul Huberdeau, outside of choral class. Coaching sessions are during free blocks, before school and after school. The singers are committed to making their performance as musically artistic as possible.”
The entire concert was streamed live on The Rivers School Facebook Page and an archived version of the concert can be found by
