And what a great story it is. It was an incredibly successful venture that not only strengthened each participant in myriad ways but also brought TheChorus to new heights of effectiveness. Thank you to each member! Your hard work on the music this Spring was the key to the work that Anton Armstrong was able to do. Your wonderful spirit of support helped to cover the thousands of details involved in the Festival itself. Our Leadership Team and the numerous team members brought excellence and dedication to the tasks at hand. I have heard from so many outside participants about how impressed they were with your work and attention to the “little things” which make such a difference. And……Kudos to you for the musical presentations of both the Symphonic Chorus and the Chamber Chorale! Your opening set was wonderful and spirited. It sparkled with your love and your beauty of sound. What a magnificent beginning to a magnificent concert. I was SO PROUD of you! And then, you were such an anchor for the great Festival Chorus that performed with Dr. Armstrong. Bravo! Please take time to notice the photos available here on TheChorus website, as well as review the concert program itself. Great memories! See Photos Here! Looking Ahead! The Huntsville Choral Festival is also our springboard into the future. Even as our chorus celebrates jumping to a new level of musical and organizational effectiveness, we are immediately looking toward the Chamber Chorale concert, Words to Live By, with the Huntsville Chamber Winds to be held Sunday, May 4, 2008 in the Weatherly Heights Baptist Church sancturary. Following that, there is the annual melodrama (such fun!) and the summer musical, Annie.
