March 20 Concerts Span the State and All Ages!

The Minnesota Choral Calendar features a set of concerts on Saturday, March 20 - in Walker, Richfield and Brooklyn Park MN.

Kantorei and the Twin Cities Youth Chorale team up for their concert "Singing for a Lifetime!" in Brooklyn Park at 7 pm

From Age to Age presents their performance at the Community Church of Walker at 7:30 pm

and the Minnesota Boychoir are joined by the Meade County (Kentucky) High School Choirs at 7:30 pm to present their program at the House of Prayer Lutheran Church in Richfield MN. 

And isn't this really what choral music is all about?  Singing across all generations! 

No doubt many of us have great memories of singing as children - I sure did.  And we want to continue to foster and strengthen the singing of children as they develop into young adults.  And offering concerts that unite the singing of the youth with the adults speaks to the benefits of singing for a lifetime.  Sure we all want the choirs to perform with high standards, yet we also want the process of singing itself to be rewarding and enjoyable.  This coming Saturday offers a taste of that balance between the pleasure of singing and the quality we've all come to expect from these excellent choirs.

I hope you'll take time to attend one of the concerts this coming Saturday - you'll be glad you did!
