We chat with director Judy Sagen about this concert and event.
What is your favorites song in the concert?
One of my favorite pieces of the Minnesota Valley Women's Chorale's repertoire for the concert is probably "O Love" by Elaine Hagenberg. It is a tribute to the glory of LOVE itself and a moving prayer of commitment and assurance. I also enjoy the Broadway Medley that we will sing with Laura as it includes songs from many of the shows she starred in on Broadway. The songs that she sings with the full Jazz Band are also exciting as they include some Jazz and Big Band standards.
What is your favorite musical?
Les Miserable
What do you hope the audience takes away from attending this concert?
I hope that the audience is able to sit back and enjoy an unforgettable evening of memorable music!
