San Diego North Coast Singers, a North County youth choir for students in grades 2 through 12, will present Chorus of the Cosmos, a spring concert on May 16 at 6 p.m. at San Dieguito United Methodist Church in Encinitas.
The music celebrates the celestial sphere, from the skies, planets, rainbows, sun, moon, wind, sky and even rockets, and directly correlates with the North Coast Singers’ fall concert, which examined the beauty of nature on Earth, according to a news release.
“Our May concert focuses on lifting our gaze and actively seeking out the beauty in the world. When the world brings daily challenging events, it is helpful and necessary to pause and look at our celestial world to unite our voices and elevate our spirits,” described Melissa Keylock, artistic director and program manager of North Coast Singers, in the news release.
The event location address is 170 Calle Magdalena, Encinitas. Tickets are $25 general/$10 student. For questions and more information: Email [email protected] or visit www.NorthCoastSingers.com
Concert highlights include the grand finale, “The Sky and the Dawn and the Sun,” as performed by Celtic Woman. North Coast Singers welcomes guest artist Clare Hatter, who will perform the lively and energetic virtuosic violin solo. Other highlights are two songs the Brioso choir recently performed as part of the TrueCare fundraising gala at Omni La Costa Resort: “True Colors,” as performed by Cyndi Lauper, and Pink’s “What .” The Illumination fundraising gala raised money for children and youth who need financial assistance with medical care costs.
The 32nd annual spring concert culminates the North Coast Singers’ season. The group will welcome new singers in August prior to its fall semester, which begins in September, for its three youth choirs spanning grades 2 through 12. Interested families may email [email protected] for more information.
Based in Encinitas, North Coast Singers provides an outstanding choral music education through weekly rehearsals, live performance opportunities and a culturally diverse repertoire encoming classical, folk, jazz, gospel and contemporary genres, the news release stated.
