Pink and red lights wash over the crowd, immersing parents and students alike in the colors of the season of love. The band readies their instruments, inciting excited chatter from the audience.
The historically-crowded event included two showings this year to provide a special experience for the parents of the performers.
The 4 p. Fresno Christian parent Dawn Hinton appreciated the new ability to reserve seating for the concert, allowing her to relax and enjoy the moment. Ainley and Mr. Certain coach and prepare the choir students so well. A photo area provided just inside the entrance, adorned with sparkling hearts, festive balloons and a bold red backdrop, presented the perfect photo opportunity for students to take pictures before and after the performance, catching one of the singers for a snap if they were lucky enough.
With so many people dear to her heart involved in the show, the experience was made even more memorable. Junior Matthew Tacchino sang the opening song of the concert for the second year in a row.
She truly did give me butterflies with thoughts of the giddiness and excitement of the early stages of love. Tragic break-ups are the downside of love. Her adept ability to guide the crowd through the emotion of this song with just her voice and guitar is extraordinary. Never have I seen two people more well-suited for such a beautiful duet. Phanco possesses an astounding vocal range with notes so beautifully high they send your heart to the ceiling. Tuck has a unique lower vocal range that grabs your attention and sends goosebumps across your skin.
