Heritage Children’s Chorale to Perform in McCandless Hall
Athens, ALA. - The Heritage Children’s Chorale will perform in the newly renovated McCandless Auditorium at Athens State University on Sunday, May 18th at 3:00pm. This year concert is entitled “We’ve Learned to Sing, So Now We Sing.” The concert is free and open to the public and the performance is sponsored by Athens State’s Livingston Concert Lecture Series.
The Heritage Children’s Chorale is one of the Southeast’s leading children’s professional choirs. The group is made up of two chapters, the Alabama Chapter which rehearses each at First United Methodist Church and the Tennessee Chapter which rehearses at First Presbyterian Church in Pulaski.
The Chorale is directed by Mary Stephenson and accompanied by Canna Ricketts and Pat Woolard. It offers children an opportunity to study a variety of musical styles ranging from classical to contemporary including both religious and secular anthems. The focus for the Chorale is that the children grow to understand the fundamentals of music and more importantly that each child recognize the importance of music in daily living and the wonderful gift of being able to share this talent.
