🎵 The Performing Arts Center was alive with the sound of music last week as Sanford students showcased their incredible talents! Our Middle School musicians kicked off the festivities on Wednesday, December 11th, with performances from grades 5-8 under the direction of Erica Scarano, Joshua Hyssong, and Kyle Hayes. From delightful duets to full ensemble pieces like "Santa the Barbarian and the Pirates of the North Pole," our young musicians shone bright! The following evening, December 12th, Sanford High School's performers took center stage. Under the guidance of Ryan Geary and Hailey Francoeur, the choir and band ensembles delivered unforgettable performances. From the Chorale's opening "Give Me Some Rhythm!" to the Concert Band's crowd-pleasing finale of "Sleigh Ride," the evening was filled with holiday spirit. A special moment came when alumni joined current students for "Auld Lang Syne"! Congratulations to all our talented musicians and their dedicated directors for two spectacular evenings of music! 🎄🎺🎹
