Hughes and Johnson earned First Chair spots in the Choir that will perform Nov. 18 at 2 p.m. at the Greater Imani Church located at 3824 Austin Peay Highway in Memphis. Prior to that Saturday, the five MCHS students along with the other 235 selections will participate in a multiple-day clinic with a college music professor.
