“This Little Light of Mine,” the 2016 upper school fall choral concert, brought upper school vocal groups together at the Nichols Hall auditorium on Nov. 16. Bel Canto, Camerata, the student-run Guys’ Gig and Cantilena performed a wide selection of songs, ranging from Bel Canto’s renditions of the traditional spirituals “Turn Me ’Round” and “Shine On Me” to the Guys’ Gig reimagining of Bruno Mars’ “Just the Way You Are” to Cantilena’s version of Abbie Betinis’ “We Have Come,” which featured instrumental accompaniment from violinist Ashwin Rao, grade 12, and Sumi Wadhwa, grade 11, on tambourine.
The final number of the evening featured all of the performers on stage together, singing a triumphant version of the civil rights anthem “We Shall Overcome.”
