40th anniversary concert. On Friday of that weekend we are dedicating our new rehearsal hall for which we raised the money exclusively. $500,000 - the only community chorus to do this. The acoustics are great.
We are doing the Dan Forrest JUBILATE DEO. It is in seven movements sung in six languages, Latin, Hebrew, Arabic, Zulu, mandarin,Spanish and English.
Since we are celebrating our 40th anniversary, former singers will join us for the conclusion of the concert.
We are also having a celebration dinner for singers and former singers at Rock Barn Country Club. Expecting more than 200.
Join us for the NC premiere of Robert S. Cohen’s Alzheimer’s Stories, a 30-minute choral work that seeks to offer some
semblance of hope in response to this debilitating disease. It was commissioned by a Susquehanna Valley Chorale (PA) chorister in honor of his parents, who both died from Alzheimer’s. The libretto was created by Hershel Garfein, who drew on testimony of Susquehanna Valley Chorale members and the local community who shared their experiences with friends and family who had the disease. In three movements, the work features mezzo-soprano and baritone soloists, choir, and a 13-piece instrumental ensemble. Different elements of living with Alzheimer’s are explored, including history, poignancy, humor, hopelessness and hope.
