  • I have been watching on my local PBS channel over the holidays performances from the Ohio Statehouse. I want to commend your group of young singers and their choir director. I so enjoyed their musical selections. The singing and dancing for Boogie Woogie Santa were enjoyable; the outfits, very attractive. I especially liked the song, Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee: an energetic performance and such lovely voices.
