Now Hear This!

The arts are alive and well at Staples High School.

This morning’s post highlights the upcoming Players production of You Can’t Take It With You.

Earlier this week, first-year choral director Luke Rosenberg produced a spectacular spring concert. A variety of groups — chorus, chorale, choir and Orphenians — sang sophisticated, challenging music.

The international program featured selections in Latin, Swahili, Zulu, Hungarian, Latvian, Spanish and Hawaiian (!). There was an American spiritual, a complex Indian raga, and the powerful final number: Billy Joel’s haunting “And So It Goes.”

Staples media lab instructor Jim Honeycutt made a 12-minute highlight tape. Click below (or here) to enjoy the hard work and great talent of scores of Westport teenagers.
