Chorale, orchestra set spring rehearsals

The Pend Oreille Chorale and Orchestra has started rehearsals for its upcoming spring concerts.

Set for June 7 and June 9 at First Lutheran Church, 526 S Olive Ave., Sandpoint, chorale rehearsals will be held every Monday from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Seventh-day Adventist Church classroom in the west end of the building. 

Chorale members are asked to bring a black three-ring binder with them to practices. Music and schedules will be provided. 

Anyone interested in singing with the chorale is invited to join. Reading music is not required, just a desire to be of service to the community, presenting quality classical music concerts. Singers are needed to expand our group. If you have any questions, call 208-946-9306.

The first orchestra rehearsal will be Sunday, March 24, in the Seventh-day Adventist fellowship hall. Experienced string players are needed. Music and schedules will be handed out at that time. Orchestra and chorale together will present the premiere of a new piece, "Be Still" by Mark Reiner, as well as other music for orchestra and the combined chorale and orchestra. Any questions, call 208-603-1277.
