"Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear the music ringing;
It finds an echo in my soul —
How can I keep from singing?”
Old Quaker Hymn, Robert Wadsworth Lowry
As Covid-19 continues to prevent us from rehearsing and performing in person, the Chorale is grateful to our families, friends, audiences, and donors for support and understanding. We wish everyone health, safety, and community during the continuing international pandemic.
During Covid-19 restrictions, we'll be sending brief biweekly email messages with links to Singer Sidebars, very short videos (usually two minutes or so) that introduce you to some of our singers, virtual performances, and more. Those videos will also be posted here on our homepage.

Virtual Concert
It may seem odd to offer you a song titled "The Road Home" when most of us have been at home more than usual over the past year, but there's more to this Stephen Paulus piece than its title might first suggest.
"The Road Home" has become a singer and audience favorite for many choral groups. Maybe it's because the tune ("Prospect") has been part of American hymnody since at least 1835 and has supported multiple texts over the years. There's something inherently soothing—even healing—about this particular arrangement's combination of words and music. For many of us, "home" means more than just the place where we reside; home can be "where you belong," as the lyrics say. Whether home is a physical place, a specific community, or a state of mind, we hope you are on the road home.
