Choir School Begins New Session
January 20, 2015 @ 3:45 pm - 4:45 pm
REHEARSALS START ON JAN. 20, 3:45-4:45 for “Out of the Lion’s Mouth”
A refresher about the project:
“Out of the Lion’s Mouth” is a new musical by Paul Dedell inspired by the medieval “mystery plays” and written for children’s voices. It tells the Old Testament story of Daniel and the Lion’s Den. Children will be singing the songs of the Satraps, who were the petty (and not to be trusted!) officials of King Darius the Mede, as well as the songs of the infamous hungry lions of the lion pit, and of course, Daniel. There will be group choral singing, and opportunities for small group singing, and short solos.
Both the Satraps and the lions sing fun, tuneful, and boisterous songs full of attitude and character. It is a pretty wild story, where eventually all the Satraps are eaten by the lions but Daniel is saved by his integrity and faith. Fun is had by all.
The performances of “Out of the Lion’s Mouth” are on March 20, 21, and 22 and will take place at St. Michael’s Episcopal Church. A small band of professional musicians will accompany the show.
I look forward to seeing you!
