It's nice to see the complimentary posts about Johnston's ballad soloists. We are proud of them! Both young men are very talented -- Derek Furrow sang during the daytime performance at Linn-Mar, and Alan Nagel sang for finals. Catch Innovation at Urbandale and chances are you'll see both of them. (And also -- shameless plug for our new Web site -- for all Johnston vocal music happenings, check out www.johnstonchoirs.com.) Have a great day!

I don't have a list with me here, but I'll e-mail Woodin and see if he can post a list of the participating groups. I don't think there's an official schedule yet, but I do know that we have a full slate of competing choirs already.
