“Joyful Spring Delights”
The Chorale performed The West Side Story Suite by Leonard Bernstein, among other thoughtful pieces during their spring concert of April, 2018, “Joyful Spring Delights.” The concert featured soloists who performed “America,” “I Feel Pretty,” and “Maria.” Additionally, the Chorale also performed other pieces including, “The Awakening” 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 taking off,” and was inspired by the wings of seabirds, as a metaphor.
