Madrigal group performs

York High School doesn’t have a Glee Club like the one depicted on the popular TV show “Glee.” But it does have the Madrigal Singers. “It’s super prestigious,” said Kellagh McFarlane, joking. “No. Seriously. I’ve wanted to do this since I was in 7th grade.” The 17-member group performed songs and carols from the Renaissance for the school board Tuesday. Members said there are many good things about being in the group, which also sings contemporary songs. “The blend (of voices) is nice. You can make it (the sound) smooth and velvety,” said Bet Anderson, a senior. “It shapes your musicianship,” said senior Chris Driver. And besides making beautiful music, “we get to bond as a group,” said senior Robert Wilber.
