April 30 Concert Opportunity
Greetings Everyone!
On Sunday, April 30th at 1:30 PM, two top-flight a cappella choruses will be coming to RWHS to perform a concert in Hovda Hall. The Journeymen Chorus - a new group that that some of my friends and I formed last summer, and Mixed Company - a mixed (men/women) a cappella chorus will be joining forces for this show.
Ovation has also been invited to perform. They will sing a few songs on their own, and then join both TJC and MC for a mass choir piece at the end of the show.
A really neat piece of all of this is that you can book tickets through the "Ovation Fans" section on Eventbrite, and each ticket purchased will donate $5 back to Ovation. All tickets are $20 a piece, and you can pick your own seats on the map.
If you've made it this far, I'd encourage you to take a peek at the link below for ticketing information. If you want to read up or listen to TJC or Mixed Company, their websites are listed on the Eventbrite link.
Thanks Everyone! -Scott Perau
