Celebrate America Across Montana - 2011

School choirs from throughout Montana perform with Tim Janis and his ensemble. Celebrate America was created by Janis to spotlight our nation's youth and to pull communities together in a celebration of music that uplifts and inspires.

High school choirs from throughout Montana will perform with Tim Janis in this special program, created by Janis to spotlight our nation's youth and to pull communities together in an uplifting and inspiring celebration of music. The program was taped in November, 2011, at the KUSM-MontanaPBS studio in Bozeman. School buses brought hundreds of students from Montana high school music programs from communities including Anaconda, Belgrade, Big Timber, Billings, Corvallis, Florence, Frenchtown, Great Falls, Libby and Livingston to Bozeman. Arriving well-prepared and very professional, each choir came into the studio to record their performance. Tim Janis, familiar to public broadcasting audiences from programs such as An Enchanted Evening, Beautiful America, and Coastal America, is well known for his "Music with a Mission" philosophy and has worked on many philanthropic projects.
