Galesburg Community Chorus Begins Rehearsals for 2024 Spring Concert at First Presbyterian Church
The Galesburg Community Chorus will begin rehearsals for its 2024 spring concert on Monday, January 15th from 7 to 9 pm at the First Presbyterian Church in Galesburg (101 N Prairie St). All are welcome to join, no auditions are necessary, and masks are optional. Dues are $10 a semester, and music fees are $5 a semester. Students are not required to pay dues.
The concert will take place on Saturday, April 27th at 7:30 pm at the First Presbyterian Church, and will feature Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana.
Carmina Burana is one of the most well-loved and exciting choral works of the 20th century, with powerful music, driving rhythms, and strong characterization of its colorful text.
Sponsors of this season’s concerts include Blick Art Materials, Galesburg Community Foundation, the City of Galesburg, and the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency.
The Galesburg Community Chorus, directed by Dr. Tim Pahel, is the oldest community music organization in the Galesburg area and is currently celebrating its 78th anniversary.
