"The Van Wezel has always been a strong supporter of arts teachers in the community by providing local students ample opportunities to watch and attend top notch performances," said David Verdoni, Riverview High School Choral Director. "We feel very fortunate and excited that they went one step further and connected us with such a great performance opportunity for our student singers. It is definitely something the students will remember for a long time!"
The choirs at Riverview High School have been in existence since the school's opening in 1958 and have held a long history of musical and performance excellence. The current program consists of over 100 students, five different choirs under the direction of David and Whitney Verdoni and a dedicated group of parent volunteers that help make the program exciting and vibrant. And opening for FOREIGNER is one of those exciting program moments for the students.

FOREIGNER still rocks the charts more than 40 years into the game with massive airplay and continued Billboard Top 200 album success.
