As you can see, we traveled a lot today, and thus had ample time to add to this list. Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana. We left Lancaster at 6:45 this morning and most of us fell asleep for a while. Then, around 1:30 we arrived at Central Christian High School in Ohio and performed for their chapel. After daily concerts for a week, not much sleep, and coming off a long bus ride, it was a bit difficult to pull out the energy to perform for them. But we were able to feed off of each other’s energy enough and make some more beautiful music. Shout out to Paul and Ben for leading us in some awesome circle songs, Bobby McFerrin style! Then it was back to the bus and onward to Goshen. We all made it safe and sound, and though I’m sure we’re all exhausted, I think it’s safe to say that we all had a blast this week. Beautiful music, awesome experiences, and way too much good food. Chamber Choir Tour 2016 was a success.
