Final virtual choirs – 2021

It’s been an unforgettable year. Through all the challenges, these singers have kept vocal music alive at GCS. They continue to amaze me with their dedication, ability, work ethic, and sheer grit.

Today was our final day of classes, and I want to say thank you to each student who pushed through this insane school year. I’m grateful for you, and so proud of what we overcame together.

Now, I’m pleased to present “Colors of the Wind” by the Select Treble Chorus and “Omnia Sol” dedicated to our seniors.

Curtain Call: Episode 2

GCS Curtain Call: Episode 2 is live! We hear from the cast members about the story, characters, and personal impact of Fiddler on the Roof. Our seniors talk with Mr. Katagiri about their roles, and what they learned from their time working on the show.

GCS Curtain Call

I’m so excited to share this news!

For the past few weeks, Mr. Katagiri and I have been working to put together a podcast. We focus on the seniors of Fiddler on the Roof as they share their stories and reflections about the process and the story. We’ve just released Episode 1, and you can listen on the following platforms:

Thank you to Alex, Baillie, Gianna, Sierra, Bella, Emma, and Riley for taking part in this project!

Fiddler on the Roof Videos

One of the biggest heartbreaks of this school year is not being able to finish our production of Fiddler on the Roof. Fortunately, Sierra Mistler decided to create a vlog for her senior musical, and she captured so many great memories from our rehearsal process. Check out her amazing work below

On your audition form you indicated if you planned to play a spring sport. Please e-mail us and tell us for sure if you’re playing a sport.
