On Saturday, February 24th, Senior Ethan Smith performed a concert with the All-State Mixed Choir in Wichita as a conclusion to the Kansas Music Educators Association Annual Workshop. Ethan was in rehearsals starting at 10am on Thursday and averaging around 8-9 hours of singing a day to prepare several pieces of music with the group. While he was attending rehearsals, Mrs. Crane, her husband, and Junior Dylan Miller were experiencing a magnificent amount of workshops, concerts, and getting to connect with colleges and other music professionals. In addition to so much music making, they also were able to enjoy great local restaurants and plenty of fun conversation!
