THE LYRIC CHORALE 2021-22 SEASON
Welcome to our new choral season! We say that with fingers and toes crossed in hopes that we can actually have a season, in light of the recent new Covid variants and increased infections. We directors and singers are starved for the choral experience and singing together. We were able to get together twice in the Spring – all vaccinated and masked – to rehearse and join our voices once again. It was wonderful and most of our members attended, so happy to make harmony together after a long absence.
As of now we are planning a season with two major concerts – a holiday concert and a Spring concert honoring long time patron Dorothy Miller, who passed away this past year at the age of 99! The holiday concert is titled “Home for the Holidays”, and features arrangements of popular carols that we all know, celebrating families being able to get together once again.
The Spring concert is titled “JOY”, as that is what Dorothy Miller brought to every part of her long life. It will feature music by the masters as well as gospel arrangements – all music that Dorothy loved.
AUDITIONS will be held by appointment, and can be scheduled by texting 585-478-0778, or emailing lyricist@rochester.rr.com. All voice parts (SATB)are welcome!
Rehearsals are scheduled to begin Monday, September 13th, from 7:00 – 9:00 at Faith Lutheran Church, 2576 Browncroft Blvd., Rochester.
Chrisanne Gates, director, and Nancy Price, assistant director
