It promises to be an evening of profoundly emotional music. For tickets in advance call 734-2545. The Whatcom Chorale is in the midst of its 29th year of bringing classical choral music to Bellingham and Whatcom County in the state of Washington. The Chorale is a community group of 120 members dedicated to presenting concerts of highest quality and to providing opportunities for people in the community to experience the joy of singing fine a cappella and accompanied choral music. The Chorale presents three concerts each year, at Christmas, Winter and Spring.
Membership is by audition.
Auditions for the Whatcom Chorale are held the Tuesday before the Christmas and Winter concert rehearsals begin in September and January. Sometimes a few auditions are held in April before the Spring concert rehearsals begin. They take awhile to download but are worth the wait. They also sang hymns, folk songs and spirituals. In two weeks the Chorale traveled to three countries and sang six concerts.
