Great Mills High School’s Department of Music held its first-ever Combined Concert on the evening of May 19, 2009.  Jointly directed by Mrs. Andrea Hampton, Orchestra Director, Ms. Bethany Wallace, Chorus Director, and Mr. Justin Turpin, Band Director, the concert highlighted the combined talents of the School’s Chamber Singers, Varsity Chorus, Chamber Orchestra and Wind Ensemble, as well as a number of the School’s alumni musicians, and a guest harpist, Caroline Brigham.

Ms. Brigham is an eighth grade student at Esperanza Middle School. The program, which consisted of themes from a number of theatrical and movie productions, was followed by three standing ovations from the audience.   The School’s Department of Music hopes to establish the concert as an annual event.
