River Stones, Rails & Renaissance:
A Rochester Retrospective
March 28, 2015 • 5 pm – 9 pm
The Governor’s Inn, Rochester, NH
A musical celebration of Rochester’s history commissioned by the Granite State Choral Society and composed by Concord, NH based, Grammy-nominated composer Nicholas White, “Rochester” is a five-movement musical piece that will highlight historic persons, events, and landmarks of Rochester – even as it presents the steady growth and renewal the city is known for, using original text written specifically for the work.
We are very excited to announce our Gala Dinner Concert on March 28, 2015 with the composer of our commissioned piece, Mr. Nicholas White, in attendance. As only the second known registered choral society based in Rochester over the last 100 years, GSCS decided to honor the city’s history in song to celebrate their 40 years of choral performances.
Empowering GSCS to achieve our mission, we invite you to become part of our ongoing belief in the power of music to build community, our enjoyment in working with singers across a range of abilities and backgrounds, and our pride in bringing a wide variety of music to our community.
