Select Barton Hills Choir 5th graders will sing with Sara Hickman at the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar on Monday, December 20, from 3:30 to 6:00 PM.
Be sure to reserve time during your holidays for this special performance with Sara, who will perform with her Family Time Rocks! Band.
Now in it’s 35th season, the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar is one of Austin’s most unique and treasured events, combining an art fair with a music festival in a holiday atmosphere unmatched anywhere in the world.

Mark your calendars for a very special event that will be here before you know it: the lighting of the Zilker Tree. An annual tradition since 1965, the event promises to be even more popular since the City of Austin budget for 2010-2011 did not provide funding for the famous Trail of Lights.
The show is scheduled to start at 6 PM but come early to get a seat up close to see the Barton Hills Choir perform holiday favorites, including:
Sleigh Ride Bounce (version 2)
Winter Wonderland Bounce (version 2)
Parking is free, but bring funds for hot chocolate, kettle corn, and other goodies that will be available. It’s a wonderful way to get into the holiday spirit and is sure to be a night to remember.
The Barton Hills Choir invites you to their Sock Hop Show, Thursday, September 30, in the school cafeteria. 5th and 6th grade choir members will be performing your favorite songs from the 50’s. The show is free and open to the public. Doors open at 6 PM, and free cookies and drinks will be provided. Everyone is welcome (children must be accompanied by an adult) so mark your calendar, call your family and friends, and get your poodle skirt and saddle shoes ready for a swinging evening with the Barton Hills ChoirAt the Hop!
Dr. Carstarphen speaks to second graders in the BHE Music Room (click to enlarge)
AISD Superintendent Dr. Meria Carstarphen visited Barton Hills on September 9, writing on her blog “The Power of Us” that:
A highlight of the visit was meeting Teacher of the Year Gavin Tabone who is a rock star! As the music teacher — who is as famous in our district as the cool folks he hangs with (like Al Roker and Lyle Lovett) — he had the students and me rocking to three songs rolled into one: the school song, Deep in the Heart of Texas, and others. It was all intermingled with several solos and much fancy action with the fingers on the piano.
