The first concert was at Cleveland HS performing arts center. This concert consisted of the high school choir students (all in tux's and gowns), a middle school choir (also in tux's and gowns) and about 4 elementary school choirs (dressed up as well). All choirs first sang on their own and then at the end of the concert all the choirs joined together on stage and sang a closing number. Like I stated earlier, Ryan enjoyed being on stage. Maybe, a little too much. After every song that Ryan's group sang, as the audience clapped, Ryan would take numerous bows. Now I must note, no one else was bowing. Just my son :) He would even face a different direction for each bow in order to make certain that he bowed to all who were applauding. At the end of the concert when all choir's sang together, when they finished the last song and everyone was applauding, Ryan began blowing kisses to the the audience. Again, he would turn his body and continue blowing kisses making sure not to to miss anyone.
Ryan bowing for the audience. Unfortunately, I missed getting pictures of Ryan blowing kisses.
The Coyote Choral also did a concert at the elementary school. This was a much smaller venue. Also, much shorter. There was no bowing or kisses blowing. However, Ryan being Ryan added his own little touch to the concert. When I dropped him off in the choir room his white shirt was tucked in. When he took the stage, his shirt was untucked. So, when the choir would finish a song and the audience would clap, Ryan would grab the bottom of his shirt, and curtsey, with biggest smile on his face.
That's my Ryan.
Grandma and Grandpa were in town to see Ryan's concert.
Another concert? Yes, Ryan was in his elementary school "Frosty Follies" concert. All the first graders sang some Christmas songs and performed a little dance.
