- The Redmond Community Choir, sidelined for more than two years by COVID restrictions, is set to return on Sept. 19.
Taking the stage for the first time since 2019, the Redmond Community Choir will perform on Sunday, Dec. 11. The concert will be at 4 p.m. at Redmond High School, 675 SW Rimrock Way. Admission is free.
The first half of the concert will include traditional and contemporary pieces ranging from musical settings of works by Shakespeare and Robert Frost to genres including spirituals, madrigals, and a gospel-tinged arrangement of a classic pop ballad.
The second half will feature Christmas and holiday themed music from around the world, including the rhythmic African Noel, a Spanish carol, a work by Norwegian composer Ola Gjeilo, and fresh arrangements of some traditional carols.
The Redmond Community Choir is a COCC Community Education Program and provides an opportunity for singers of all levels to participate in a musically enriching choral experience.
