Thanks for the great preview of tomorrow's concert, ArtsWatch! Word of the day: "dodransbicentennial." 🤓💡
"...choral and organ works, will help tell the story of a church community that has thrived through 175 years of human history. 175 years! By jiminy, when this first Episcopal congregation in the Oregon Territory opened its doors in 1851, its parishioners were still ferrying their buggies across the Willamette and the Fauré Requiem had not yet been written! That is kind of mind blowing."
Our Oregon and Southwest Washington Choirs are warming up their voices for some great season-ending concerts. From May Day to Memorial Weekend there is choral music in all styles, for all tastes. Read on for a preview of the first half of this merry month of singing.
