Information for Chorus Members
Important changes, late breaking news or information relating to rehearsal or
concert procedures will be posted on this page. Chorus members should refer to it periodically, especially as we approach
rehearsals.
SINGING AT CHAUTAUQUA -- The chorus will sing the Choral Fantasy at Chautauqua Institution on Saturday,
July 26. This will be our fifth year in a row to be invited to Chautauqua and we encourage all singers to participate so that
we can keep this important relationship vital. There will only be one rehearsal for Chautauqua, Wednesday, July 23. If you
did not participate in June rehearsals and would like to sing at Chautauqua, download the Participation and registration information
form from the Registration Information page. Email if you would like more information.
A preview of clips for the whole program can be found on youtube by doing a search using the following
terms: (ALL of the words for each clip must be entered to find the correct posting)
Vienna Augenblick;
Beethoven King Stephan;
Ruins Final Chorus;
Beethoven Choral Fantasy (posted in 2 parts);
Beethoven Ninth Community Chorus (posted in 4 parts)
The longer works are posted in several parts because youtube allows only 10 minute clips. The posting for the Ninth Symphony
is from a performance Andy conducted in San Francisco, so the interpretation will be close to what we can expect with our
concert here. There are several postings of the Choral Fantasy, but the one by Barenboim is the best.
