Director's Notes
The GEWC and Another Virtual Concert
Greetings, friends of the GEWC!
The last time I wrote something in this space was just before Christmas. The Chorale was preparing to release our Wintersong 2020 virtual concert. I hope that you were able to view it! If not, you'll find it still available to stream on our YouTube channel.
Since our Chorale has still not been able to gather in person, we have been meeting weekly in online sessions. I'm pleased to tell you that we will be releasing another virtual concert this spring. It will feature a combination of virtual choir productions (with singers contributing from their own homes) and some archived performances from live concerts. Something special this concert: We'll be collaborating in a virtual piece with Doc Hampton and his singers! Many of you will remember Doc from our spring concert CELEBRATE! in 2019. You won't want to miss it!
I invite you to "like" the Chorale at our Facebook page. And stay tuned to our Chorale website for further updates about this virtual concert. We plan to release it on Friday, May 14.
Stay well, and keep singing!
