Amabile Singers: And Together Singing Harmony Concert

Amabile Singers present their spring concert, And Together Singing Harmony, on May 9 at 7:30 pm at St. Peter’s in Charlottetown. This well-loved chamber choir, now in its 12th season, is directed by Clem Carelse and supported by collaborative pianist Sara White.

Choir members will present time-tested chorale selections including Randall Thompson’s “Alleluia,” Edward Elgar’s “My Love Dwelt in a Northern Land,” and Ola Gjeilo’s “Ubi Caritas,” and feature favourite Canadian composers, including Stephanie Martin, PEI’s Evan Hammell, and Oscar Peterson.

Should audience members feel compelled to burst into song during Peterson’s “Hymn to Freedom,” they can blame it on the concert title—and give in to the urge.

A special treat for the audience will be the guest appearance of The Four Hoarsemen, a barbershop quartet featuring two members of the Amabile Singers.

And a special treat for the choir: taking the show on the road. This concert will be performed a second time on May 18 at 2:30 pm at Hillcrest United in Montague.

For both concerts, suggested admission is payable by cash at the door or by freewill offering. All are welcome.
