Music: May 2013 Archives

On Friday, May 31, 2013, at 7:30 p.m., at Trinity Episcopal Church, 5th and Cincinnati in downtown Tulsa, the Tulsa Boy Singers will present a spring concert. Tickets are available at the door: $10 for adults; student admission is free.

The program includes two pieces by Benjamin Britten ("Jubilate Deo" and "Rejoice in the Lamb"), the Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis in G by Herbert Sumsion, Franz Schubert's "Ave Maria," Cesar Franck's "Panis Angelicus," Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring," "O nata lux" by Thomas Tallis, "Skylark" by Johnny Mercer and Hoagy Carmichael, and selections from the musical "Oliver!"

The singers are ages 8 and up, covering all four vocal parts, and there's a training choir for younger boys, led by Mrs. Jackie Saylor. We've found TBS to be an excellent training ground for musical knowledge, confidence in front of an audience, following direction, and teamwork. As at all TBS concerts, there will be an opportunity following the concert for those interested in joining to have a short audition at the piano.

Following the concert there will be a reception with sweet and savory foods. There will also be a "wine pull" fundraiser.
