Reminders & Concert Opportunities

Mark your calendars for April 1st for a choir workshop for Holy Week & Easter. There is so much chant to cover, as we found out last night! The Saturday workshop will run from 10:15- 2pm with a break for lunch. If you are not available, please let me know in advance so that I can make needed the adjustments. Food will be provided for a light breakfast and lunch.  The music schedule for the workshop  will be posted online soon. We’ll also use this time as an opportunity to record some of our pieces.

  • Chanticleer, an all male vocal group, will be performing a concert at St. Peter in Chains Cathedral, downtown Cincinatti, Friday April 7th at 7:30pm. Tickets are on the expensive side, but probably worth it! $50 for adults & $20 for students.  Call: 421-2222 or online at http://www.stpeterinchainscathedral.org.
  • NPM Easter Choral Festival-  We participated in this a few years ago….
    Easter Choral Festival – Dayton (at Incarnation Parish) on Wed., May 3 at 7pm, the other in Cincinnati (at St. Columban) on Sun., May 7 at 7pm.
    Choirs will sing 1 or 2 pieces of their own choosing, then join together as a “Combined Chorale” to sing 2 pieces: Shaw’s “With a Voice for Singing” and Mozart’s “Ave Verum Corpus.”
    If your parish choir is not coming (I’m not planning on it) but you’d like to still sing, please come and join us in singing our two combined pieces!
    Please reply back and RSVP your choir’s participation and the piece(s) you’ll be singing, or your name and parish if you are coming as an individual.
