Wheel!! Of!! Ports!!!

Our final concert today was a game show! 
WHEEL!!  of!!  Ports!!

Baritone Matt Tintes played the role of Vanna quite nicely, offering our unique "wheel" of ports to audience members to spin.  Bass Chris Foss (Pat Sajak) encouraged the audience members to share their favorite stories from each port. After each wheel spin, the ensemble sang a song from that 
country until the wheel had no more spots left.

The wheel held all of the countries we visited: England, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Germany and Russia. But of course, the country that we are now all thinking about is America, home. So we finished with a Shaker Hymn: "Simple Gifts" and with the audience, sang "America the Beautiful." 



Chris Foss as our very own Pat Sajak.


Vanna, um Matt, holds the wheel for an audience member to spin.



A final bow.
