WHAT’S NEWS IN PETERS TOWNSHIP
HIT THE TRAIL!
UPCOMING CONCERT
WITH SOUTH
HILLS CHORALE
[email protected]. For more
information, call 412.221.9109.
The South Hills Chorale sings into
a “Star Spangled Spring” at 7:30 p.m.
Friday, April 26, and Saturday, April 27,
at Westminster Presbyterian Church,
2040 Washington Road, Upper St. Clair.
The 90 singers from various communities
in and around Pittsburgh come together
to present an enjoyable program of
Broadway, patriotic and American folk
tunes, exuberantly heralding the end of
winter and hinting at the coming summer.
Audiences can shake winter doldrums
while tapping toes to an “Oklahoma!”
medley and “Rhythm of Life” from
“Sweet Charity.” The music of Rodgers
and Hammerstein continues to inspire,
with “You’ll Never Walk Alone” and
“Climb Every Mountain” combined
in one dramatic piece. More familiar
favorites, including a choral arrangement
of “The Star Spangled Banner,” set the
stage for spring.
Currently guided by the talents of
Music Director Philip R. Aley, Assistant
Director Skylar Bunk, and Nancy Gordon
Galluzzo as accompanist, the South
Hills Chorale enjoys a proud 59-year
tradition of providing area music lovers
with opportunities to both sing and
hear professional-quality choral music
in concert.
Tickets are $20 and are available
from chorale members, online at
southhillschorale.org, at the door or email
