I'm so proud of how hard you both have worked to get here! Brava, ladies!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💛🎶 ✨

Congratulations to Henry Clark ‘24 (Hill Murray School) who will be attending his dream school, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor where he plans to pursue a B.M.A. and will study both classical and music theater performance!

Henry truly is a young artist with great passion for the art of singing. His insatiable curiosity, drive to excel, and musical instincts have helped him achieve a great deal in a short amount of time. After a “lifetime” of music theater experience, he was drawn to explore classical singing just a year ago and discovered it was a natural fit. His lyric tenor instrument, more accustomed to belting, was within just a few months soaring through dramatic Italian and tender German art songs, winning competitions, and getting into top music programs. Always with a great attitude, ready to work hard, and fully committed at all times--I simply couldn't ask for anything more. What a delight and joy this journey has been. Cheers to your success, Henry!! 🎓⭐️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Congratulations to Blake Klemenhagen '24 (St. Croix Preparatory Academy who will be heading to Marquette University! In addition to studying computer science, he plans to continue singing and acting in the theater. Blake is conscientious, hard working, has a great sense of humor, and a willingness to try anything — all of which is why he’s continued to make great progress even through the spring of senior year! I don’t know which I’ll miss more…hearing him croon a golden age ballad or watching him go all out as “Donkey” from Shrek! Congratulations and all my best wishes to you, Blake!! 🎉🎉🎉🎭 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
