As 2015 moves to an end, Morrison Madrigal Singers work hard rehearsing for upcoming performances and participating in a number of community events. With the holiday season in full gear, they have performed at the Sterling Mall and Community General Hospital in Sterling, IL, and the Prophetstown, IL, Love Light Tree Festival and parade. Their next few performances include the Fulton, and Morrison, IL, Christmas Walks and the Clinton, IA, Sawmill Museum. Students are so excited to be spreading holiday cheer throughout the area and advertising for their big performances!
