From Dr. Whitmire: Dear Singers-
What an excellent job you did at our May 1 concert. Each of our three pieces was so wonderful in its own way. I will be earth was transcendent and spiritual just as I had hoped.
The Settling Years was joyous, exuberant and very interesting, and the women raised the roof on Still I rise. Specials thanks to Joy and Kaylee who really brought it. It was a very special evening.
This has been a great season and a great year. From the Black History Month Concert in February to the Leavitt Requiem in April and the Women’s Concert in May—so much wide-ranging music, all performed with distinction. Not to mention the fabulous Mozart concert last October and Vaughan Williams’ Five Mystical Songs in December. Your commitment and hard work have yielded such fabulous music-making. You have made me very proud.
Please don’t miss
