To the editor:
Last Sunday, my family and I had the great pleasure of attending a show put on by the Aroostook River Voices at the Presque Isle Middle School. Wow!! Where have they been all my life?
On the way out, I heard a lady behind me asking her companion where they were playing next, because she wanted to be there. So do I!
What a multi-talented group of people they are! They sing, they play a variety of musical instruments, including pretty plastic trombones (huh … who knew?) and there are even a few comedians in the group. They did show tunes, pop tunes, and gospel music, and I don’t believe I have ever heard “Battle Hymn of the Republic” performed better than by these talented people.
We were also treated to performances by the Middle School and High School Choruses and they were great! I especially liked the “Farmer’s Tan” song!
Thank you, thank you for an awesome show. CPAC … I hope you are reading this.
