It is a tradition for the Choir Class (including Madrigals) to go on the annual Christmas Tour. They went to Salt Lake City and stayed at the Hampton Inn Motel.
All Choirs went and performed at the UDOT, Cathedral of the Madeline, the Utah Capitol, Primary Children's Hospital, the LDS Church Office Building, and the Assembly Hall.
Madrigals performed at the governor’s mansion and the Joseph Smith Memorial. The Madrigal boys put on a performance with a silly Twelve Days of Christmas song at the UDOT, Primary Children’s Hospital, and Temple Square.”
Men give up your seats for the ladies” said one of the boys just before the performance at the Assembly Hall.
On Friday they went ice skating and happened to run into a bunch of choir students from Desert Hills High School. Christmas music played over a speaker and the lights above the rink changed colors softly.
The students also had a chance to shop and get dinner at the Gateway Mall. Saturday the students went and saw White Christmas which was put on by BYU in Provo and got a chance along with audience to sing White Christmas with the cast.
At the end the some of the actors and actresses went out to the audience and danced. One of them danced with a lady just a few rows away from some of the students.
On the last day after watching White Christmas at BYU they started home and arrived back here in St. George about ten ‘o’clock.
Jade Jensen, a Dixie High senior, was asked “From a scale of 1-10 how well do you think the group did and how much did you enjoy the trip?” Her reply was, “ How well the group did 8 ½, how well I enjoyed it was 10.”
Then she was asked what her favorite song was this was her reply “Favorite song was Behold a Tiny Baby because it is a very pretty song.”
The last question she was asked was what was her favorite part about the trip, she said, “Favorite part about the choir trip was singing at the Utah Capitol.”
