Over 150 Whitefield students participated in the annual Flavors of Fall concert held on Thursday, October 29, in the Louise Owens Theater. The concert featured performances by the Middle School chorus, Orchestra 1 and 2, Band 1, the Whitefield WolfPack Marching Band, and the Whitefield Jazz Band.
Led by Patricia Stone, orchestra director, and Stacy Quiros, band director and fine arts director, the instrumental groups played music ranging from classical greats such as Canon in D by Georg Philipp Telemann to Motown and Big Band favorites like My Girl, I Want You Back, Moon River, and St. Louis Blues. The Middle School chorus, directed by Millie Turek, sang songs of poetry and the season, many whose lyrics were written by teenagers.
“It’s always amazing to me to see the vast number of students at Whitefield who are gifted in the arts,” said Quiros. “Hearing the wide variety of genres from each group was also really fun.”
A reception was held in the lobby of Morris Hall following the concert.
