<P class="fontlook">Earlier this month, 31 of the 49 members of the Carrollton High School Choir "Les Choristes" participated in the University of Miami Frost School of Music 2009 Honor Choir. Because Carrollton Freshmen were on a school trip, the remaining Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors joined forces with nearly 200 other top choral young women from throughout Florida. The all day event included workshops and grueling rehearsals led by some of the world's finest choral directors culminating in a free public concert in the late afternoon. The massive women's choir performed three pieces "Regina Coeli" by Michael Haydn, "Will There Really Be a Morning?" by Craig Johnson, and "This is the Day" by Gerald Smith. The last selection, a spirited Gospel number, featured Carrollton's own Amberly Nardo chosen as featured soloist. Last year's 2008 Honor Choir marked the first time Carrollton participated, with Elizabeth Hayworth, a junior at the time, also chosen as featured soloist. Dr. Walter Busse, the school’s Music Director commented, "It's an incredible musical experience for all involved! Of course, next year we have every intention of continuing our soloist streak!"
