When their performance was canceled due to the pandemic, the Chamber Singers at Chino Hills High School in California found another way to perform.
Watch this beautiful performance of “Over the Rainbow.”
This video was widely reposted and went viral.
Creativity! Hope! Persistence! Resilience!
Here’s the actual YouTube link if you’d rather not have the newscaster talk over it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSPG186HvMg

Sensationally Glorious!
I have a friend that teaches at that high school, but now he is teaching from home through the internet.
There’s no place like home.
These. Kids. Are. Awesome!
Here’s another, a virtual performance of What the World Needs Now, by the Boston Conservatory at the Berklee School of music in Boston. Young people are the best people, as any teacher knows.
