Today the Albany Chorale participated in the Veterans Day celebration sponsored by the City of Albany Parks & Recreation. This is a photo of the very young ROTC color guard from Westover High School presenting the colors. The Chorale concluded the program with the Armed Forces Medley followed by God Bless America. I think they liked us! They especially liked our a ca****la 4-part version of God Bless America. It was a privilege to sing for the many veterans in attendance.
Shared from composer Eric Whitacre- a message from Elton John.

Singing is good for you!! See you in August!
Singing is good for you. Singing with others may be even better. Studies have linked singing in a choir to reducing stress hormones, increasing immune-boosting cytokines and stimulating memory for people with dementia.
