Las Vegas powerhouse pop vocal trio, Divas3 (pictured front center), performed for Portsmouth Community Concerts on March 24, 2023 at Churchland High School. Earlier that day, they presented an outreach for the school’s chorus, band, and theater students. With 100 students plus teachers in attendance, the Divas (Crystal Alicia Garrett, Samantha Duval, and Charity Farrell) performed songs, shared one-on-one advice (“sing with a purpose,” “always be yourself,” “make a song your own and make it real for you”), and invited students to join in an acapella number (“Let It Go”). Students were thrilled when the Divas requested a group photo.

The Eric Mintel Quartet, led by Eric Mintel on piano, presented a Christmas Jazz Concert featuring “A Charlie Brown Jazz” Christmas with the music of Vince Guaraldi. The event also included the music of jazz legend Dave Brubeck. That afternoon, the quartet presented a MasterClass of “musical conversation” at Churchland High School attended by approximately 100 band and orchestra students as they introduced hands-on “Jazz Improvisation,” or “spontaneous, on-the-spot” techniques.
