orcas-boy-choirSaint David’s Episcopal Church welcomes Orcas Boy Choir under the direction of Mary WillAllen for their first appearance in Friday Harbor on Sunday, November 20, at 4 pm. This fall concert features a handful of boys, aged 10-15, singing music in the English tradition at the close of the day. The program is both restful and inspiring while including a variety of styles from contemporary music to 13th Century Dominican Chant with a modern touch. Pianist Richard Lind will accompany the choir for this performance.

Orcas Boy Choir was established in January of 2012, and five of the boys in the current performing choir have been singing together since the beginning. They meet once a week to learn music theory and sight reading and to experience singing exceptional music in many languages. OBC is always ready to welcome boys who would like to sing. There is a Training Choir for learning fundamentals, and a Performing Choir for boys with sufficient music experience.

Saint David’s Church is located on the corner of Park Street and Marguerite Place. This concert is presented free of charge.
