Again this year the Civic Chorus was invited to participate in the Memorial Day Community Observance. And just like last year it was held in the Roundhouse. However, this year the organizers set everything up facing a different direction. So we weren't on the stairs again, or even in the balcony. They situated the Chorus to the right of the stage, and I think it worked really well. We were actually standing in several rows instead of strung out in a long line, and I think it helped the ensemble feel.
We had a great turnout from the Chorus, and we sang well. They even asked us to sing our prelude songs again after the ceremony was over. Kirk commented, "It was our best performance to date at the Memorial Day service." I guess we're getting pretty good at this set of songs.
Prelude
- My Country 'Tis of Thee
- America the Beautiful
- The Star-Spangled Banner
