Description
A pair of tickets to the Minnesota Chorale's award-winning "Bridges" concert, 8 p.m., Saturday, May 19, 2007, St. Olaf Catholic Church, Minneapolis. Sing Me a Home, the Chorale's Bridges outreach program for 2007, is a landmark collaboration with Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity (TCHFH), using music to explore the idea of "home" and to deepen awareness of issues relating to affordable housing and poverty. Four high school choirs will join the Chorale, led by Kathy Saltzman Romey, in songs drawn from the many cultures represented by TCHFH homeowners (African American, Caribbean, East African, Southeast Asian, and others). Newly commissioned choral settings, based on TCHFH families' stories with texts written by area high school students, will be complemented by projected photographs. Together, the music, words, and images will make vivid the vital work in which Habitat is engaged and will embody the Chorale's belief in song as a force for social good.
