Aaron Burr Visits Potomac

Baritone Jonathan Christopher visited the Intermediate and Upper School chorus classes on Tuesday to tell students about his experience while playing the role of Aaron Burr in the national tour of Hamilton. Mr. Christopher discussed how he became a professional Broadway and opera singer, shared an anecdote about appearing with Celine Dion on the Today Show, sang several solos for the students, and enjoyed performances by each chorus. We were all inspired and awed by his powerful singing and stories of his eclectic career spanning multiple musical genres in North America and abroad. Thanks to assistant chorus director Dr. Catherine Wethington, a college classmate and former professional colleague of Mr. Christopher, for arranging this visit.
