Don’t worry it’s not just lullabies!
“Awake and Dreaming” is comprised of songs that walk the boundaries between dreams and reality. Songs that will get your toes tapping and your heart pumping and songs that will cause you to pause and reflect and hold the ones you love a little closer. This concert is about the in-between times; the dawn and dusk times, the time of realization before wakefulness and the day-dreams of peace and reconciliation. The program is varied, with a broad representation of cultures, languages and choral styles with something for all to enjoy. It features pieces selected from the previous two concerts that were cancelled due to the pandemic. Viva Chorale members voted on their favourites and will finally have a chance to perform them in front of an audience. Come experience the beauty of voices singing in harmony and the joys of live music once again!
