Special Guests: The Faith Singers
Joining us during the Thursday, June 10, 2010 Concert
The Faith Singers, the high school choir of Countryside Community United Church of Christ, Omaha, Nebraska, will join in concert with the Allegro Handbell Ensemble at their final tour performance on June 10, 2010. This group is made up of forty-five youth in grades 9 through 12 from five high schools in four school districts. The choir rehearses weekly on Sunday evenings and sings for Countryside’s 11:00 service three of four Sundays per month. Although the service they regularly sing for is the church’s jazz based worship, the group’s repertoire is varied, encompassing Bach to gospel. Each year after school is out, the choir embarks on a nine to ten day tour to different parts of the country, this year heading generally north and east from Omaha. Last year was west, next year will be east and in 2012, south. They are thrilled to be joining forces with the Allegro Handbell Ensemble for a concert in Hinsdale.
