Let's Sing!

This morning, we arrived at the Carmi High School and were kindly escorted to the choir classroom by members of the "Singing Six," a select chorale of young ladies we had previously heard at a recent area family fellowship.
After brief introductions, our family proceeded to sing a variety of patriotic, barbershop, spiritual, gospel, and even a few Christmas songs. We had been asked by the teacher, Mrs. Hyla Lamp to sing for the group of 47 students as they were learning a few a capella numbers. Since we enjoy singing a capella music, she thought it would be appropriate for our family to share some of our music with her class, as well as a little history of ourselves and our adventures in singing.
They were a very gracious and attentive class and laughed and participated in what we offered. We did some "doo-wop" improvisational music that everyone was able to join in, picking out harmonic parts as well as vocal percussion. What fun!
We were encouraged to hear one of the spiritual songs that they are working on. Keep up the great work guys! It sounds wonderful! A capella can be such fun!
