Carson Chamber Singers to sing at American Legion National Convention Sunday in Reno
The Carson Chamber Singers of Carson City, Nevada, will participate in a patriotic memorial service at the 99th annual American Legion National Convention in Reno on Sunday, August 20, 11 a.m., at the Reno-Sparks Convention Center.
The Singers will present a choral rendition of “What a Wonderful World,” arranged by Mark Brymer, and a hymn, “For the Fallen,” composed by Eleanor Daley.
Founded in 1985 as a performing group of the Carson City Symphony Association, the Carson Chamber Singers have been conducted by Michael Langham since 2012.
They have sung at several venues in Northern Nevada and California and ten years ago, they sang for the 89th National American Legion Convention in Reno. Glade Myler, tenor, said “members of the group are proud to have been selected again to sing for the veterans who have dedicated themselves selflessly to preserve our freedoms, especially do they salute those who have given all for the cause.”
The Carson Chamber Singers and the Carson City Symphony Chorus, a larger choral group open to all high-school age and above who want to sing with an orchestra, will begin rehearsals in September for fall and winter concerts. They perform in six or more concerts each year. Rehearsals are Tuesday evenings at the Carson High School Choral Room.
For information about joining the choral groups, see CCSymphony.com/ccsingers.htm or call the Symphony Association at 775-883-4154.
