Most choirs associated with Symphonies across the US do not program their own concerts. Mendelssohn is breaking the mold! \n\nDaniel talks about the program of the concert, which celebrates the fact that everyone sings, no matter who they are. Singing also brings people together throughout the ages. The program includes historical composers like Bach, and Copland, with more contemporary voices like Hailstork and Abbie Betinis, with poetry of Walt Whitman and others. \n\nDaniel also talks about his other work in Cleveland, Ohio. The sports rivalry between the two cities doesn't phase him in the least!\n\nYou can hear the Mendelssohn Choir's concert of \"We All Sing\" on March 30th at the East Liberty Presbyterian Church at 3 pm. \n\nVisit https://www.themendelssohn.org/choir/we-all-sing/ to learn more.
