"Musical Entourage" Farewells Three Seniors at Spring Spectacular


Bluffton’s show choir “Spring Spectacular” saw three seniors make their final appearances with “Musical Entourage” Wednesday evening at the high school cafetorium.

 

Pictured above from left to right, Katie Thacker, Daniel Johnson and Emily Harnish have all been involved with show choir throughout the high school career, however only Emily has been with Bluffton throughout. Daniel joined "Musical Entourage" during his junior year, and Katie in her senior year. Emily and Katie both began their involvement with show choir in middle school, and are six year veterans. Emily also served as dance captain for “Musical Entourage” over the past two years. 

 

The contributions of all three were recognized at the conclusion of the “Spring Spectacular”, which featured performances by the seventh and eighth grade choirs as well as “Musical Entourage”. Choreography for the middle school performances was arranged by some of the students themselves, and show choir director Elyse Breeding also recognized their efforts during the final ceremony. 

 

Miss Breeding also thanked senior band members Brandon Anderson and Adam Butler who have been a major part of the show choir program, especially during the competition season, but were unable to attend the show Wednesday, and parents and other adults who have made special contributions towards the program. 

 

Kristan Brinneman thanked Miss Breeding on behalf of the students, presenting her with a bouquet of flowers. 

 

“Musical Entourage” performed five of the routines they have performed over the past year, with solos from Harnish (“Don’t Rain On My Parade”), Mykayla Rodenbeck and Carson Addington (“Song of Purple Summer”), and Rodenbeck again, this time with Aaron Carr (“Disease Medley”). 

 

Also performed were “Virtuoso” and “Johnny One Note”. 

 

The eighth grade choir presented “It’s My Life”, “Don’t Stop Believing” with solos from Drew Gerber, Ciara Lovell, Alex Miller and Breezy Sills, and “Walking On Sunshine”.

 

The seventh grade choir performed “Mercy” with solos by Haley Hiday, Kaitlyn Schriver and Hannah Worman, “Eye of the Tiger” with a solo effort by Hunter Okey, and “We Go Together”. 

 

Photos and video from the show will be posted here over the next few days.
