UNO BOCH Festival
February 05, 2013
Choir members Kaycee Bartels, Ethan Clements, Taylor Dudley, Zach Lade, & Grant Moles traveled to Omaha with Mr. Doran and participated in the BOCH (Bands, Orchestra, and Choruses at the Holland) Honor Festival on February 1st – 3rd on the campus of UNO. The musicians rehearsed Friday afternoon/evening and all day Saturday in the Strauss Performing Arts Center and The College of Public Affairs/Community Service Building. They were also treated to concerts throughout the festival by UNO’s faculty and students. Saturday evening we were able to attend the movie “Les Miserables” (based on the musical by Claude-Michel Schonberg which is based on the novel by Victor Hugo). What an awesome movie to take singers to!
The weekend concluded with a 1:15 PM concert on Sunday, February 3rd, at the Holland Center for Performing Arts in downtown Omaha. The Holland Center for Performing Arts is acoustically one of the best concert venues in the region with state of the art facilities. There isn’t a bad seat in the house. The students did a wonderful job representing JCC!
