Music
The Honor Chorus in concert.
The music program at OLSH has undergone an exciting transformation in recent years. Innovative course programming combined with high standards for technical performance have caused the vocal and instrumental music programs to flourish.
In December 2010, OLSH's Honors Chorus performed at Carnegie Hall in New York City at the invitation of composer Tim Janis. The Chorus performed in "An American Christmas Carol" with performers including Sarah Darling and Jim Cole.
