The YPC’s Gala is approaching! We’ve been working very hard to
make this a memorable event! There have been countless hours of rehearsals and
choreography with the fabulous Jacquie Bird; the small price to pay to make
this 25th Anniversary Gala outstanding. Every division has been perfecting
their music and their dance moves and I am certain that the audience will want
to dance along with us. I am also pretty certain that every chorister has
strengthened their core, and has gotten healthier thanks to the physically
demanding choreography!
The
rehearsals for Chorale’s classical set have been challenging however we are
rising to the occasion! I am very excited to perform our Americana set,
which we have taken with us to China and France, because of its repertoire and
beautiful staging. It will be the American premiere of the Chorale's Americana
Set and I am very excited.
As
a graduating senior this year, realizing that this will be my last gala gets me
very emotional. This is my seventh year with the chorus, and I do not feel
ready to let it go yet, especially knowing that I won't get to perform in such
grand productions like the gala anymore! I believe that all of the seniors will
miss the gala season, although very hectic, because it tests our abilities to
work so hard at school and at chorus. The gala is yet another event that we are
so accustomed to and must say goodbye to. However, we know that we will cherish
this performance!
It is so exciting to be performing at Carnegie
Hall with the New York Pops, Stephen Petronio, Capathia Jenkins, Kate Davis,
the Antonio Ciacca Trio and with our host Renée Fleming. We can’t wait to show
the audience what we’ve got in terms of musicianship and showmanship. And of
course, we’ll show you that we know how to celebrate the chorus’s silver
anniversary! See you there!

Chorus, 17
