Reflections - Lake Cowichan
add to outlook add to google calendar remind me
The Medford Singers is a mixed-voice community choir which was started 25 years ago by Bev Medford, who is remembered by many as not only a beloved singer, pianist and music teacher, but also a good friend of the Cowichan Valley performing arts community. From the humble beginnings of a ladies trio and then expanding to a sextet, the Medford Singers officially formed in 1991.
Today, the choir has grown to just under 40 members who range in age from late teens to mid-90’s. As a tribute to the Medford Singers’ 25th anniversary, our spring concert -- entitled ``Reflections`` -- will include a mix of Bev’s old favourites, some well-loved Broadway selections and a number of contemporary pop hits. The program will also feature one classical piece, Haydn’s “Creation”, on which the choir will be joined by three guest soloists.
Other highlights will include solo performances by this year’s mentor student, Baritone John Felton, and Soprano Erin McLean, who is a former voice student of Bev`s.
Our Lake Cowichan concert will be held Saturday, May 21 at St. Christopher`s & St. Aidans Anglican Church starting at 2:00 pm, and tickets can be obtained in advance from choir members or at Volume One Books in Duncan.
Ticket prices are $17 in advance, $20 at the door, and children 12 and under are free of charge. For more information on the Medford Singers, check out our Facebook page.
