Tuesday evening, January 11, was an exciting evening at Whitewater High School. Senior Anderson Waelchli presented a voice recital in the WHS auditorium. Dr. Sarah Read Gehrenbeck served as the collaborative keyboard artist.
Some of the pieces performed included art songs such as Die Forelle and I'll Sail Upon the Dog Star as well as musical theatre selections "Heaven on Their Minds" from Jesus Christ Superstar and "Sadder but Wiser Girl" from The Music Man. Contemporary pieces included “Just the Two of Us” and the jazz standard, “I Thought About You.”
Waelchli's performance was presented in partial fulfillment of his Independent Study in Vocal Performance with WHS Music Educator, Karen Tordera. The recital was well-attended and included a reception following the performance.
