Movie and Musical Favorites with Audience Sing-along May 9, 2009

The Valley Concert Chorale, the Tri-Valley's premier chorus, will perform the music of movies and musicals and invite the audience to sing along. The concert will include choral excerpts from classic musicals such as Oklahoma, Brigadoon, Carousel, The King and I, the Disney movie Pinocchio, as well as recent Broadway hits including Cats, Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables, and many more. In addition, the audience will have a chance to sing along with several well-known songs including selections from The Sound of Music.

"It will be an evening of great family entertainment," says John Emory Bush, the Chorale's artistic director. "These songs carry memories for many people, tunes they've heard and known for years that will warm hearts."

A special feature of the concert will be the audience's opportunity to sing. "What makes this concert unique is that the audience can sing along with songs they love," says Chorale president Doris Slater. "It will be a lot of fun."
