Comments from participants in the 2017 Summer Festival:
“I was one of the newbies this year. It was incredible to join so many talented singers to rehearse and perform this outstanding repertoire.” “Thank you CONCORA for a great week of music and friendship!” "What a great week! It was my first time participating and it was a wonderful experience!" "Chris Shepard makes this musical experience both profound and joyous - what a wonderful singing summer! So exciting to hear these 100 plus voices approaching performance level for Saturday's magnificent concert!” And comments from a few of the audience that filled Bethany Covenant Church to hear this program on August 5, 2017: "It was a beautiful concert! Would gladly have listened to another hour of those gorgeous voices and the well-chosen repertoire." "Exquisite program...I just closed my eyes in some passages to let myself soar through these passionate renditions. The soloists were spectacular, and Chris Shepard is just sublime. This is my second CONCORA-based experience...it is easy to fall in love with such an ensemble!” “The Festival Chorus's renditions gave me goose bumps!” |
Come celebrate the life and works of Leonard Bernstein, a man who left his mark on the American musical landscape as a composer, conductor, pianist, educator, and humanitarian. our 2018 Summer Festival concert on Saturday, August 4 will take place just a few weeks before the 100th anniversary of Bernstein's birth on August 25 in Lawrence, Massachusetts.
Representing Bernstein's life in the theater, we will sing music from West Side Story, Wonderful Town, Peter Pan, and Candide. We will also perform an abridged version of Bernstein's Mass, one of the most significant choral works of the 20th century. We hope to see you there!
