Concert Countdown

The Pass Chorale is having extra rehearsals, and we are making final changes to the program before it goes to be copied. We are trying to remember everything that needs to be done before the concert. Today director Ernest is delivering music and picking up the big drums for the percussionist.

Come one, come all to the concert. The Schubert mass is really beautiful, and there's something really special about Christmas music! The carol sing-along is a chance to sing with an orchestra!

The concert is Sunday, December 11, 2:30 pm, Our Savior's Lutheran Church, 1320 W. Williams St., Banning.

Adults: $15

Students and Seniors: $10

Christmas Concert - December 11

The Pass Chorale Christmas Concert is scheduled for Sunday, December 11, 2011, 2:30 pm at Our Savior's Lutheran Church, 1320 W. Williams St. in Banning. The featured work is Franz Schubert's Mass in G. It is a beautiful concert mass with soloists, chorus and orchestra. It is the first time the Chorale has performed a Schubert mass. Singers are really enjoying rehearsing this work.

In addition, we'll perform several Christmas anthems. I remember "The Snow Lay on the Ground" by Leo Sowerby from an album by the Robert Shaw Chorale, and have always wanted to sing it. We borrowed the music from Our Savior's library. "Shepherd's Joy" by Mark Hayes is a Celtic carol with recorder, violin, piano, and percussion accompaniment.

The concert always ends with a Carol Sing-Along, with the orchestra! It's not every day that we get to sing with an orchestra, and the audience always loves this. The orchestra members enjoy it too, because Director Ernest makes up arrangements for them on the spot!

A beautiful reception follows the concert.

Tickets and further info are available from Chorale members or by phone 951-849-4676 or email, siva@dishmail.net. Cost is $15 for Adults, $10 for Seniors and Students.

We hope many can join us for our 2011 Celebration of Christmas!

Fall Rehearsals

Summer is over but there's still time to join the Pass Chorale for the Christmas concert. During the summer we've made great progress on the Schubert mass. We are also learning several Christmas anthems. In the heat of the summer we were singing about snow! I think it made us a bit cooler.

We are still calling all singers to join us. We normally meet at Our Savior's Lutheran Church in Banning. We are going to try meeting at the new Gathering Hall at Dorothy Ramon Learning Center as soon as we can get a piano moved there and tuned. Watch this space for further info.

Calling Singers - Pass Chorale Begins Rehearsals
