MLC Hosts National Choral Festival
Hosting duties for the biennial WELS National Choral Festival are usually passed from one Lutheran high school to another. In 2021, Martin Luther College held the hosting privilege, and we could not have been more excited!
The gym was packed for the Friday night Pops Concert as 465 high school students put their best dancing shoe forward. Saturday included rehearsals and lots of fun. Sunday morning saw the individual high school choirs edifying local churches’ worship services, and Sunday afternoon brought all the voices together in amazing harmonies for the Sacred Concert.
These talented students made music, memories, and new friends. Not a small number of these friendships will continue when some of these students meet again as college students enrolled here at MLC, ready to prepare for service as pastors, teachers, and staff ministers—and choir directors, worship coordinators, organists, and singers!
