Our Season
 

A Season of Social Change and Community-Building!
One Voice Mixed Chorus’ 2011-2012 season is packed with powerful music and a message of positive social change. Our season opens with Brave Souls & Dreamers. An inspirational concert celebrating the lives of visionary leaders who have challenged prejudice and violence: Harvey Milk, Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa, Judy Shepard and more. Featuring music by Bob Dylan, Holly Near, Stephen Sondheim and the premiere of BraveSouls & Dreamers, arranged especially for One Voice and inspired by the words of peacemakers from around the globe! Directed by Jane Ramseyer Miller, the chorus performed for our annual community outreach tour November 18-19, 2011, in St. Francis and Duluth, and will perform in the Twin Cities on January 21 and 22, 2012, at Hopkins High School Auditorium in Minnetonka.

On April 2012, One Voice heads back to school! We’re launching an expanded version of our OUT in our Schools program, and we’re particularly proud to perform for the “Night of Noise” celebrations that shine a spotlight on school bullying. More info coming soon!

Our season finale comes in June with Come Fly With Me: A GLBT Romp Around the World. Join us for a spirited trip around the globe! Travel tunes join indigenous songs in this musical travelogue showcasing stories of GLBT communities worldwide. The concert includes a fiery Argentinean tango, lush favorites from the Russian choral masters, an encounter with faeries in Ireland, Bollywood delights, heart-pounding African drumming, and sing-along favorites! The concert takes place June 15 and 16, 2012, at the History Theatre in St. Paul.
