​For the triumphant end of our season, we will perform the rousing and visionary Jubilate Deo set in seven different languages--liturgical Latin, Hebrew, Arabic, Mandarin Chinese, Zulu, Spanish, and English.  This surprising work samples a spectrum of musical inspirations and cultural styles, culminating in a universal triumph of joy as we sing “Omnis Terra, Jubilate!” Accompanied by orchestra, this exultant theme provides fitting inspiration as two choruses under Dr. Pahel unite in resounding and captivating collaboration.

It’s 1979; it’s Saturday night, and Jim’s parents have gone away for the weekend!  You know what that means…it’s time to party!
Slip in through the back door so the neighbours don’t notice and get ready for a great night of amazing  “current” music from the 70’s.  Jim and his friends have been practicing for the talent show at school and are ready to perform hits like “Midnight At The Oasis”,  “Bad Bad Leroy Brown”, “Killing Me Softly”, “Tie A Yellow Ribbon”, and many, many more!!

It’s going to be a boss time, but not too loud, or else the neighbors might call the fuzz!!  The lava lamps will be bubbling, the punch will be spiked, and everyone will be decked out in their 70’s best attire!!!

Join us for a rip-roaring ’70s house party…it will be DYNOMITE!!!!!
