perform two concerts at the Bridgton Academy in North Bridgton on Friday, May 18 at 7 p.m. and on Monday, May 20 at 3 p.m.
The singing group is made up of 55 members from fourteen
surrounding towns including Windham and Raymond. They will present a varied
program made up of traditional classical pieces, folk songs, spirituals, and a “Fiddler
on the Roof” medley; along with some surprises as well. There is a recurring
theme of hope, freedom and peace that ties the pieces together and will be
pleasing to all who attend.
The LRCC is directed by Jan Jukkola, Susan Stockwell and
Dan Allen and the group is accompanied by Carolyn Stanhope, Sara-Sue Schreiber
and John Waldie. The program will also include accompaniments by musicians,
Rusty Wiltjer, percussion and Mark Priola, electric bass. They will be joined
by instrumentalists from the chorus including Ginny Halligan, flute, Glen
Jukkola, violin and Jan Jukkola, clarinet.
The chorus would like to thank the Bridgton Academy for
all their help and support; along with providing them with rehearsal space and
a concert venue. They would also like to thank their enthusiastic audiences and
local sponsors. The concert is free but donations to help cover the purchase of
music and other operating costs will be gratefully accepted. Come and join the Lake
Region Community Chorus as they sing into spring. The concert is sure to be
remembered long after the final chords are sounded.
