The Mennonite Educational Institute (a private high school) had nearly 400 students singing in choirs that year. The Chamber Singers travelled to Ottawa for the Canadian National Music Festival and were awarded Gold. This piece, “Denn er Hat Seinen Engeln Befohlen” (He will give His angels charge over thee), is From Mendelssohn’s Elijah. Larry Nickel taught at MEI for 24 years.
