Cardinal Chorale in Coshocton for tour finale

| June 26, 2014

DSCN7234COSHOCTON – The nineteenth edition of the Cardinal Chorale will be in Coshocton for the final performance of their six-day, twelve-concert summer tour. The concert will be Thursday, June 26, at 7 p.m. at Roscoe United Methodist Church, 475 High Street in Roscoe Village, Coshocton.

Other performances on the summer tour will include stops in Columbus, Mt. Gilead, Dublin, Marion, South Bass Island, Bellevue, Ottoville, Lakeside, Fostoria, and Dover.

The Chorale’s 90-minute program will feature selections from their 2012 show, “Keep the Dream Alive” and their 2013 show, “Sing Together,” music that “will fill the soul and lift the spirit,” as one listener described a Chorale performance.

Organized in the summer of 1995 by its director, Charles R. Snyder, the Cardinal Chorale is a select 45-voice traveling ensemble of high school and college singers. In its nineteen-year history, the Chorale has been invited to sing for a number of professional conferences and has performed on the campuses of Capital University, Muskingum University, Kent State University, Ohio University, and Penn State University. The Chorale has also sung for a number of state celebrations including the rededication of the Ohio Statehouse, and the state’s Martin Luther King, Jr. celebration in Columbus. In the summer of 1998, the Chorale shared its musical magic on a concert tour of England, France, and Wales.

Local members of the current Chorale include Hayden Burkholder, Joshua Hilgenberg, Seth Kittner, Nathan Lain, Alex Lawrence, Jacob Panteloukas, Madison Speicher, Justin Swails, Connor Wheeler and Evan Youker.

There is no admission charge for the concert, but an offering will be received to help cover the Chorale’s travel expenses.
