Olympic College Concert Choir joins symphony chorale on Saturday

On Saturday, June 3, at 7:30 p.m. at Silverdale Lutheran Church. The Bremerton Symphony Chorale, joined by the Olympic College Concert Choir and area instrumentalists, present “The Music of Living”.

“I want to feel the music of living.”

Tonight’s repertoire, with its beautifully poetic lyrics, indicated in quotation marks throughout this article, articulates the human necessity for music. From our opening song to our last, we invite you to embrace that visceral need and welcome “all that is lovely.”

“Some to the Lute, some to the Viol went, and others chose the Cornet eloquent. These practicing the Wind, and those the Wire, To sing Men’s Triumphs, or in Heaven’s quire.”

If you could choose to play an instrument, what would it be? You might choose the lute, or the viol, or perhaps the cornet. Did you know that the viol, customarily a six-stringed instrument, is played upright like a modern cello? Interesting.

“I’ve been looking for the sunshine; I can see the light.”
