 An acapella group based in the Twin Cities have been singing their way through Bemidji schools. Today they performed at multiple schools, including Northern Elementary. The Sound Exchange performed to kids in kindergarten through third grade at the gymnasium at the elementary school. They entertained the students with song mashups from Johnny Cash, Whitney Houston, Duffy and Taylor Swift. It is the first time the Sound Exchange has performed in Bemidji. We hope they have a good time, first and foremost. Yeah, that's probably the most important thing, that they have fun. And then after that, we hope that they enjoy the music, maybe that a song speaks to something that's in their life, brightens their day a little bit, anything like that. The acapella group will perform at the annual Spring Concert Fundraiser presented by the Bemidji Show Choirs. Bemidji Schools' Volk Motive and Lavochibalo are also both set to perform. Organizers say that all proceeds from the show go back directly to the Show Choir programs. The Fundraiser is part of this year's budget. So, living in Bemidji, you have to travel to Show Choir competitions, so it includes bussing. One of the big reasons we fundraise is to keep the fee affordable for all kids, so no one's turned away because they can't afford the activity. So we fundraise and this is a big portion of that. It's going to be a great show. The Sound Exchange will perform at the Bemidji High School Performing Arts Center both Friday and Saturday nights at 7 o'clock. We have information on where you can purchase tickets to the show online at lptv.org slash news.
