“Joyful Spring Delights”
The Chorale performed The West Side Story Suite by Leonard Bernstein, among other thoughtful pieces, during their April, 2018 “Joyful Spring Delights” concert featuring soloists in “America,” “I Feel Pretty,” and “Maria.” Other pieces performed included, “The Awakening̶” by Joseph Martin, and “Flight Song,” a piece written as a gift to Dr. Anton Armstrong and the St. Olaf College Choir of Minnesota, by Kim Andre Arnesen. This piece was written for young musicians whose musical careers were just beginning, inspired by the wings of seabirds, as a metaphor for flight.
