Fallbrook Chorale presents 'Songs of Spring on the Green'

The first sounds of harmony rang out Saturday, June 5, as the Fallbrook Chorale ushered in much anticipated live music. Ann Frederick, chorale vice president, welcomed over 100 guests to the outdoor gardens of the First United Methodist Church.

"It has been a really hard 18 months for those of us who love to sing in this choir,"

lamented Frederick. "We are so happy to be back. Today we represent about 50% of our membership and we hope to have everyone back in the fall as we prepare for our grand Christmas Concert."

Under the direction of Denny Lang and accompaniment of Patty Lang, guests were

treated to selections from Rodgers and Hammerstein's "The Sound of Music" and classics such as "Singin' in the Rain" and "What a Wonderful World." An audience sing-a-long featured "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," "Shine on Harvest

Moon" and other toe-tappers.

Finally, the set wrapped up with the audience standing and joining in for songs of

patriotism, including an Armed Forces Salute to all branches of the service, ending with a prayer for our country, "God Bless America."

A Dec. 11 tentative date has been set for the annual Christmas Concert, at Sonrise Christian Fellowship, Fallbrook.

The 2020 pandemic has brought unthinkable changes and hardships to everyone. To keep the Fallbrook Chorale sharp, go to www.fallbrookchorale.org to give and/or join.
