Event Information
All children and students with ID are free at the Box Office.
The 48 student-singers of the Whitworth Choir wrestle with the question, “How can we function in rehearsal, in performance and in life more economically, effectively and expressively?” Answers are revealed throughout a lifelong journey of musical, personal and interpersonal stewardship. Representing different backgrounds, interests, abilities and belief systems, Whitworth Choir members come together to celebrate the gifts of the human voice and ensemble membership, and to explore myriad stories that have shaped and will continue to shape the human experience.
As a people, we share a yearning to live life fully. In this program, the choir seeks to focus on life journeys identified in stories that honor the sacred, delight in life and love, and acknowledge both “grief that saps the mind” and “sweet rivers of redeeming love.” Edwin Fissinger’s infectious Make We Joy sets the tone for the time we will share together.
