The Whitworth Community Chorale is set to take the stage at the Martin Woldson Theater at The Fox in downtown Spokane on Sunday, April 14, at 7:30 p.m.
The chorale has grown to 150 members since it was formed last fall. Its second concert, From the Altar to the Stage, will feature the Deutsche Messe (German Mass) D 872 by Franz Schubert. Audience members will also experience well-known choruses from notable operas and musicals.
Conducted by Joshua Chism, the Whitworth Community Chorale is a non-auditioned, open-enrollment choral ensemble for community singers of all ages and experience levels as well as Whitworth students, employees and alumni.
The chorale was formed to provide singers with a unique opportunity to participate in a rigorous and high-level environment that doesn’t require a major time commitment. Dedicated to the performance of large-scale choral masterworks in addition to secular and sacred choral works, the chorale rehearses Monday evenings from 6:30-8:30 p.m. during the Whitworth University academic calendar.
