All of the choirs wait behind stage before the curtains are pulled up to signify that they will start their second performance of Winter Spectacular on Saturday, Dec. 3. Some share words of encouragement to deteriorate any fears their peers may have. “My biggest motivation is [knowing] that my friends are right here with me and theyre going through the same thing,” freshman Abby Lawton said. “When you join choir, youre in a family and they motivate me. Theyre truly inspiring and they motivate me to work harder and actually do the things I love.”

All the choirs jump around to ‘All I Want for Christmas is You’ by Mariah Carey as their ‘good luck’ ritual. “My favorite part of the preparation is getting to spend time with people that you never get to spend time with because theyre in different choirs,” freshman Abby Lawton said. “I have friends in electrum, but I never get to see them. During [the] tech week, I [got] to see everybody and spend time with them.”
