2024 Cantata Choir
Dear friends,
Welcome Back! It’s been 10 months since we sang together and it’s time to resume!
The Choir is excited to gather, rehearse and tour. Our first rehearsal, October 7, is behind us already and nearly 30 volunteer vocalists have begun to work on “Glory Touching Earth”.
The cantata for our 38th season is “a Christmas worship musical for multi-generational choirs”, arranged and orchestrated by Cliff Duren for Word Music.
The Youth Chorus has not yet organized, but will soon. Please contact us now if you have an interested young person!
It’s not too late for additional energy and enthusiasm to join us: new faces and voices! Our six-part choir auditions only for solo vocalists, narrators and instrumentalists, though our expectation is that all participants will learn their parts, singing on time, in tune and blending with the group.
As in seasons before, rehearsals are …
- At Joyful Servant Lutheran Church, 1716 N Villa Rd, Newberg.
- Mondays in October and November, 7:00 to 9:00pm.f
- Saturdays in November, 9:30am to noon.
We are preparing for a series of eight programs in December throughout the area (Amity, Dayton, McMinnville, Newberg and Yamhill) and in support of the YCAP Yamhill County Food Bank. Contributions 2004 through 2023 are nearly $330,000!
Thanks to all who have participated and supported the choir in the past! We appreciate all who have supported us recently, particularly the Austin Family Foundation and First Federal Savings and Loan, with replacement of a large portion of our audio system.
If you are wondering whether to commit for this season, please check us out soon at an upcoming rehearsal!
God bless all!
Lee and Linda Schrepel, directors
