HENNESSEY VOCAL FESTIVAL

29 Oklahoma schools descended on Hennessey today bringing a mega choir of 669 students. This event was coordinated by Hennessey Choir Director Beth Berkenbile, her staff, and a team of volunteers. Throughout the day the students practiced in groups then came together for the mega concert this evening. The students had never performed together until the final concert in Hennessey’s high school gym with all 669 students. Approximately half of the students are middle school and the other half high school age. The Hennessey gym is famous for bad acoustics, but is a wonderful concert hall for this event.
