#ICYMI here's a video from the most wonderful Tuesday of the year. #HappyHolidays from the Albany High choirs. Take note--Tuesday Book Talks change to TUESDAY AT 2pm in 2024!
One of our absolute favorite traditions! Thanks to the beautiful voices of the Albany High School choir for treating us all to their annual holiday concert. Directed by Brendan Hoffman, the choir is always a joy to hear. Go see them if you get the chance!
