Third Street and West End put on a fantastic Spring Concert! 🎤

The concert featured a wide variety of performances, including full group numbers, small ensembles, rhythm section features, and an exciting finale with both ensembles combined into a 28-member group complete with a double rhythm section!

These groups have grown tremendously throughout the year, and none of this would have been possible without the leadership and dedication of their directors, Quinn Cameron and Natalie Holsey.

Another huge thank you goes to for making all of our concerts possible! We could not do what we do without you!! Thanks for making our music come alive!!

Looking forward to another great year of music in the fall! Wishing everyone a fantastic, relaxing, and musical summer!
