“It was really fun to visit family and old school mates back in New York with the wind in my sails because I was singing at Carnegie Hall with my choir,” said Cave Junction’s Sue Lily. This was such an unexpected opportunity, but it fulfilled a hidden dream we all have.” “But even then, I never thought I’d perform at Carnegie. “I was a voice major in college,” said Grants Pass resident Jodie Fulton. Several choir members reported how merely walking into Carnegie Hall was “an awe-inspiring moment,” because “it is so beautiful and the sound is so impeccable there.” “And now, it’ll be an interesting challenge to take what we learned about vowel pronunciation in New York City and synthesize those lessons into the rest of the choir before our two upcoming Oregon concerts.” “That was an important aspect, because we all spoke English a different way,” Campbell agreed. We all had the same thing in common, everyone was so amazed and overwhelmed by being chosen for such an honor.” From all the various languages and dialects, they molded our voices into one choir. Lommel was “impressed” that the rehearsals in New York City, which brought together singers from the U.S., New Zealand, Australia and Europe, “went so smoothly.

“He creates these detailed unique harmonies.” “Ola likes the lush sound of eight-part choir music,” added 3 Rivers Chorale board chair and choir member Sandy Lommel. Our trip to Carnegie Hall is really due to Kate and her artistic vision for the choir.” And I’m grateful to Kate because of the way she worked us to perform Ola’s ‘Sunrise Mass.’ That recorded performance is what caught their eye. “The ‘Dreamweaver’ music is glorious,” said Susan Hall of Grants Pass, “there’s these beautiful close harmonies.

Their concerts feature an eclectic variety of music - from 500 years ago though present-day music.ģ Rivers Chorale performed Gjeilo’s “Sunrise Mass” in 20, with an orchestra of both professional musicians and students, so “we were so thrilled to then work with this wonderful composer in person,” said Campbell, who holds a Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance and a Masters in Teaching Music.

The April 15 concert at Carnegie Hall brought 22 small choirs together to perform Gjeilo’s dramatic ethereal music, and the combined choir of 250 singers included 26 members of 3 Rivers Chorale, who made the pilgrimage to perform the “Dreamweaver” music on one of the world’s most prestigious stages.ģ Rivers Chorale is composed of 45 singers from the Applegate, Rogue and Illinois valleys who share a dedication to performing fine concert music in Southern Oregon. “Usually a performance at this level requires an audition process.” “This was such a tremendous honor,” Campbell said. The community choir from Grants Pass was invited to perform at Carnegie Hall after a talent scout discovered the music of 3 Rivers Chorale online last August while sifting through hundreds of small choirs from around the world. We’ll also perform a second work from the Carnegie concert, based on a text by Walt Whitman, called “Song of the Universal.” This is a joyful piece that affirms life and lifts everyone’s spirits.” “It’s based on a medieval Norwegian folk poem, and really, it sounds like it should be a soundtrack for an epic film. “Ola is a young Norwegian composer currently in residence at Carnegie Hall, and ‘Dreamweaver’ is his grand new work,” said 3 Rivers Choir Director Kate Campbell. Fresh from a once-in-a-lifetime performance on the main stage at Carnegie Hall in New York City, Southern Oregon’s 3 Rivers Chorale will deliver an encore of Ola Gjeilo’s “Dreamweaver” music next weekend in Cave Junction and Grants Pass.
