On Wednesday, February 22, the Holy Cross Madrigal Singer ensemble participated in the 2017 High School Choir Festival at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. Performing in the concert were seven high school choirs and the DC Youth Orchestra.
The Academy joined with St. Anselm’s Abbey School to perform “Wade in the Water” arranged by Moses Hogan. The two choirs held several rehearsals together in the weeks prior to the festival.
All the high schools and the orchestra performed “Te Deum, II. Prayer” by Dan Forrest and “Jeremiah’s Fire!” by Rollo A. Dilworth together to close the evening’s program.
