Mozart Requiem

The Idaho Falls Symphony performed last evening in the Idaho Falls Civic Center.  As part of their concert, they invited three local high schools to perform the Mozart Requiem with the symphony.  Madison High school was included in this opportunity along with Bonneville and Hillcrest High Schools from Idaho Falls.  It was a great opportunity for the students to prepare such a large, glorious work for the communities.  Sarah and Dave performed together with about 150 other performers.  The conductor is new this year.  His name is Thomas Heiser.  He displayed great energy, musicianship and innovation as he led the participants in the concert.  Catherine and I were in attendance.  We enjoyed the beauty and emotion of the music.  Catherine wasn't sure that she would enjoy it as much as she did.
