Elkhorn Valley Students Selected For Honor Choir

More than 700 students from 96 high schools in Nebraska and Kansas will participate in the annual Honor Band and Choral Clinic hosted by the University of Nebraska at Kearney.

Five Elkhorn Valley students have been selected for the various choirs: Honor choir-Angel Qualset; Festival choir-Mitchell Petersen, Prestin Vondra and Christian Yaw; and Women’s choir-Ruth Vigil.

The Jan. 28 event will include 725 students who will work with UNK faculty and guest instructors before performing two public concerts. The 5:30 p.m. performance will feature the Festival Band and Honor Band, along with the UNK Wind Ensemble, and the 7 p.m. concert will showcase the Festival Choir, Honor Choir, Women’s Choir and UNK Choraleers. Both concerts will be held in UNK’s Health and Sports Center. Tickets, which include both concerts, are $3 and will go on sale at 4:45 p.m. that day at the center.
