Choir Concerts

Each year, the Merrillville High School Choral Department presents four public concerts each year, in addition to performing at many additional events. Our fall concert is typically conprised mostly of show tunes, and is followed by our winter concert, which showcases the choir's vocal skill with choral arrangements of holiday favorites, both contemporary and traditional, in addition to many talented soloists and smaller ensembles, also occasionally including a handbell choir. Later in the year, our contest concert gives the choirs an opportunity to perform classical pieces, in addition to providing a forum to demonstrate the talent of soloists who acieved a Superior rating at the ISSMA Solo & Ensemble Contest. We conclude the year with our spring concert, which features the choirs singing modern pop favorites. Each and every one of the concerts are performed in Reinhart Auditorium, our very own theatre here at MHS, and at most concerts, the music is complemented by live video projection, spectacular sets & backdrops, and breathtaking theatre lighting.

Past concerts...

We are currently making an attempt to put every concert online (either through pictures, music, or both) from 1999 to the present. This is, however, a time-consuming process, so concerts will be added gradually as they are completed.
