Southlands Students Stand out at Musicale

Every year, high school students from ACSI schools around the region gather together at an annual music festival called Musicale. Over the course of the Musicale week, students gather together to learn, practice, and sing songs.

As hoped, our Southlands group did not disappoint! Among the many songs performed at the Musicale, they stood out the most with a stirring rendition of “Jesus What a Savior”, a song about how Jesus is the one who brings life and meaning to the world. Many in attendance were struck by how profoundly believable the group’s performance was.

“I’ve gotten so many comments from people who felt the students were sincerely worshipping,” noted Hilton. “In their adjudication, the phrase “I believe you” came up a lot from the judges. That’s what made it stand out.”

“I want to especially commend the students who performed as a select group in the command performance,” said Principal Brandon Shultz. “The piece they sang was incredibly moving and they represented their school very well.”

The students who performed during the Command Performance were: Yelin Park, Joseph Kim, Harim Kim, July Xu, Calvin Chen, Megan Warnecke, and Nobuyoshi Unno.
