Oh, say, can you see...

Shirts and Pants, an extra-curricular male choir of Bluffton High School boys, will sing that phrase and more as the entire State of Ohio watches later this month. To watch a video rehearsal of the performance click here.

The choir of 15, directed by Kevin Gratz, will perform The National Anthem prior to the tip-off of the Ohio High School Athletic Association Division I boys' basketball state championship game. The performance is at 8:30 p.m., Saturday, March 26, in the Schottenstein Center at The Ohio State University.

The choir will perform the Francis Scott Key work a cappella. The performance will be aired on live television on the Sports Time Ohio channel.

During their performance, the choir will wear black pants, white long-sleeve shirts and ties. The photo and video were taken on Tuesday, March 15, during a dress rehearsal.

The choir sings several times during the year. Its repertoire ranges from traditional male choral works to gospel music.

For persons unable to obtain tickets to their sold-out performance in Columbus, the choir will perform The National Anthem during the Friday, April 8, Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce breakfast at 7:30 a.m. in the town hall. The free breakfast is open to the public.
