April 12 and 13, 2014, the Chorale will present”Songs from the Heartland.”
Enjoy a musical feast of folksongs, hymns, spirituals and popular songs. The music of the people has been a wellspring for composers of art music and popular musicians 
alike, and an inspiration to singers of all ages. The concert presents music by Kansas composers and songs of the heartland of America, including works by Lawrence composer Forrest Pierce, Kirke Mechem, Stephen Paulus, Aaron Copland and Tarik O’Regan. The concert features Wichita gospel singer, baritone Earnest Alexander, and mother-son pianists Julie Warkentin and Jesse Warkentin.
Wichita Chamber Chorale continues its outreach and partnership with Wichita-area schools with a focus on Middle School Choirs. Special guests are Matt Nutter and the Hadley Middle School Choir, Kevin Moler and the Allison Middle School Choir and Jenny Potochnik and Brooks Technology and Fine Arts Middle Magnet Choir.
Both concerts will be at Plymouth Congregational Church, Saturday April 12 at 7:30 pm and Sunday April 13 at 3:00 pm.
Be sure to join us for a reception of cookies and punch after each concert. We’d love to meet you and hear more about your impressions of the concert. Thanks for supporting the Wichita Chamber Chorale!
