VocalPoint 2012 Inaugural Concert
VocalPoint, a 70-voice auditioned choir, presents its inaugural concerts, featuring Maria Jette, Steve Staruch, KrisAnne Weiss; DrumHeart Drum Ensemble; and a display of the National AIDS Quilt.
The music, ranging from light-hearted songs about food to songs honoring those who have died too young, is engaging, thoughtful, and high quality. One of the pieces, written by Abbie Betinis, is a world premiere.Betinis is a composer whose music has been called "superb... whirling, soaring", and "audacious... edgy... thrilling" (Minneapolis Star Tribune). A McKnight Artist Fellow, her music unfolds with a dramatic, melodic impulse, often inspired by language, patterns, and play.
Please note that we will also be collecting a free-will offering during the concerts, of which 100% will go to Open Arms of Minnesota.
