A small but merry band of minstrels from Chorale Midwest performed Sunday, October 5, at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival. Midst ladies faire, jousters and more, these songsters entertained with tunes of love desired and undone, fickle partners and seasons lovely.
Seasons of Song
Art Series by John Paul Schafer
We premiered this suite of four pieces "Seasons of Song" by artist John Paul Schafer at our concert earlier in the fall. These works are for sale, and thanks to John's generosity, half of the proceeds will be donated to Chorale Midwest. Take the opportunity to view these incredible pieecs again at our Christmas Concerts December 8th and 10th. Learn more about the works and read John's artist statement here.
