Congratulations to our 9 singers who represented North Hills at the 2016 PMEA District 1 Honors Choir festival. Mr. Cloonan co-hosted the event with Upper St. Clair, and it took place at Westminster Presbyterian Church in the south hills. Guest conductors were Dr. Julia Thorn from Susquehanna University and Dr. Sean Taylor from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley at Brownsville. Representing NH were: Eric Crownover, Katelyn Emmons, Adam Gettens, Brandon Hackimer, Connor Hoffman, Aidan Kelly, Meredith Madill, Josh Mann, and Eleanore Pavelle. Thank you to Mr. Kaufmann for recording the concert so we could review it afterward and remember the experience for years to come! The choral portions have been compiled into a video that we posted to the NH Choir YouTube channel. Click the video below to view it. Thank you to Mrs. Vojtko for providing the photos from last night's collage concert. Fantastic job to all of our high school performers!  Several high school instrumental and choral ensembles will collaborate on a Fall Collage Concert on Oct. 17 at 7 p.m. in the Middle School Auditorium. In past years, the bands and choirs have held separate events in the fall, so this concert provided an opportunity to work together on shared performance. The evening will feature the chamber strings, wind symphony, wind ensemble, women’s choir, symphonic choir, and North Hills Singers. Each group will perform their own pieces, but they will come together for several joint selections, including “Inscription of Hope” by Z. Randall Stroope, “The Promise of Living” by Aaron Copland, and Peter Wilhousky’s stirring arrangement of “The Battle Hymn of the Republic." Additionally, the Allegheny Brass Band will finish the night as special guest artists, continuing a long-standing partnership with the high school instrumental program.
