Greeted by a ceramic art exhibition, Upper School parents, faculty, and friends enjoyed the annual Evening of the Arts on May 15, 2009.

The program included musical performances by the Jazz Ensemble, Choir, and Chamber Ensemble, including "Mo' Li Hua" (The Jasmine Flower), a traditional Chinese folk song, and "Apassionato" from Brian Balmage's Latin Dances.

Dancers performed both modern and advanced ballet pieces including "Kite Tournament" from The Kite Runner by Alberto Iglesias.

Theater students presented comic and serious monologues, video commercials, and a closing performance of "America" from Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story.

Bravo to our talented actresses, musicians, dancers, singers, artists, and the teachers who made it possible. Encore!
