Eric Whitacre, Oh Watch the Stars by Moira Smiley, as well as many holiday selections.
“The winter solstice, when daylight starts becoming lon- ger, is sometimes referred to as the rebirth of light,” says Pemi Music Director Will Gunn. “I chose musical pieces that also celebrate light, and should be uplifting as we approach the sol- stice and the holiday season.”
Pemi Choral continues to grow in membership and in en- thusiastic audiences, and new singers are always welcome to try out this non-auditioned, community chorus at any of our first three rehearsals, be- fore committing to the semester.
