In Spiritual Song
The Christ’s Church Choir will present their first solo concert in many years Sunday, March 12 at 4. They will sing favorite choral works to raise funds for their 2018 pilgrimage to England, where they will be choir-in-residence at Truro Cathedral.
Accompanied by organ, harp, and violin, the chorus — 16 boys and girls and 18 adults — will be led by Christ’s Church organist Ruaraidh Sutherland in a program of classic spirituals and anthems by Dawson, Bainton, and Wood. The program will conclude with Gabriel Faure’s evergreen <Requiem> (baritone soloist, Simon Riker).
A reception will follow in the parish hall where CD’s of the choir and information on the pilgrimage will be available. Admission for adults is $20, with children in full-time education admitted free. Contact music@ccrye.org for further information.
