Songs of the Season bring cheer to the Topeka & Shawnee County Public Library
TOPEKA (KSNT) - The Topeka & Shawnee County Public Library will be hosting its Songs of the Season concert series in December. Songs of the Season features area high school choirs singing popular holiday songs.
"I teach a class called Modern Music," Tina Goodrich, Highland Park High School choir and music teacher. "Which is a bunch of kids that may have some experience playing guitar or bass or keyboard or drums, but they haven't had a chance to put it all together. The guys you see today are called Porte Armado, they've made their own group as part of my class. They show up for class everyday and work on songs and they are here to play those songs."
On Tuesday, the Highland Park High School group, Porte Armado, played a variety of holiday Mexican songs. The group included Highland Park High School seniors, Alexis DeLa Cruz, Fabian Bermudez-Soto and Carlos Romero.
