Spring is in the air at St. Monica. Santa Monica will come alive with the sound of music on May 18 when St. Monica Catholic High School presents its annual Performing Arts Department Spring Concert at 7 p.m. in the sanctuary of St. Monica Catholic Church. More than 75 high school and middle school students will entertain the public with a 90-minute choral concert consisting of contemporary and traditional music selections.

This year’s show will feature three different performance groups: Rainbow Riders (advanced high school choir), Coro di Concerto (beginning/intermediate choir) and Harmonic Bronze (hand-bell choir from High Desert Middle School in the Acton/Agua Dulce School District). The concert will consist mainly of group performances, with a few solos from featured members of the Rainbow Riders. All performers will have piano accompaniments.

“The annual spring concert is a tradition that has taken place for more than 25 years,” said Ed Archer, music director at St. Monica Catholic High School. “The Rainbow Riders and Coro di Concerto have already performed in two other choral festivals this year. We plan to take those programs and couple them with Harmonic Bronze to offer guests a truly wonderful evening of choral music.”

The concert takes place inside St. Monica Catholic Church, located at 725 California Ave. General admission tickets are $5, with a reduced price of $2 for students and seniors. All tickets can be purchased at the door.
