On January 9, students from Dordt College came and performed at Calvin Christian High School. An orchestra and a jazz band performed for first an audience of 3rd graders, 4th graders and 5th graders from the elementary school and the high schoolers. It later performed for an audience of anyone who wanted to come. They performed a variety of songs with different themes. Each band had the opportunity to perform alone and played different songs with different styles based on their instruments.
The high schoolers were informed about what they could do musically at Dordt college. This was helpful to those with musical talent who were going to have to go to college soon. Academic applications about the college were also referred to to help students with college planning.
It was a good experience for the bands who were able to perform and the audiences who were able to enjoy what they did. It is good to see students use the talents God gave them and hopefully future students will continue using what God has given them in whatever they do. When they do this, they can please audiences or teachers, but more importantly God.
