On December 8, Jackson Middle School held its Bands & Choirs Winter Concert in the Willowbrook High School Auditorium. The performance featured the Cadet Choir, Concert Choir, and a Combined Cadet and Concert Choir with a special guest narrator, Mr. Farquhar. Following was a performance by the Jackson Concert Band and Symphonic Band under the direction of Mr. Koppel.
This is one of my favorite concerts of the entire school year,” said Choir Director Sarah Giordano. “It’s the holiday season, and our families come together to enjoy this wonderful concert.”
Giordano said the event is a big night for the 6th Cadet Choir, marking their first opportunity to perform for an audience. She also noted that the Concert Choir has been working hard since the beginning of the school year to perform at this event.
Giordano said one of the keys to the program’s success has been the fantastic support they receive from parents, as well as from the D45 Music Boosters. “They have been outstanding. We really appreciate all that our Music Boosters do for our program and for our students.”
Thank you to all our students for another outstanding performance! And special thanks to Ms. Giordano, Mr. Koppel, the District 45 Music Boosters, and all those who help support our talented students!
