Voices of Glory Inspires and Electrifies Audiences
North Valley Chorale’s Voices of Glory concert on Saturday, May 16 was an unforgettable evening of music, celebration, and community as audiences filled Camelback Bible Church for this stirring tribute to America’s 250th anniversary.
The 60-member chorale, joined by organ, brass, and percussion, delivered a vibrant and emotionally powerful program that moved seamlessly from sacred masterworks to beloved patriotic favorites. Audience members described the performance as “electrifying,” “uplifting,” and “deeply inspiring,” with many commenting on the thrilling sound of the choir and brass filling the sanctuary.
Highlights included the scintillating Glorias by American composer Daniel Pinkham and celebrated British composer John Rutter, both performed with brilliance and energy. Patriotic favorites such as Battle Hymn of the Republic, God Bless America, When the Saints Go Marching In, You’re a Grand Old Flag, Bugler’s Holiday, and Down by the Riverside brought enthusiasm, smiles, and standing ovations from the crowd.
The concert was preceded by North Valley Chorale’s FOX 10 Arizona Morning Show appearance, where anchor Annalisa Pardo interviewed NVC president Anita Murcko from the Phoenix Boys Choir rehearsal space. Choir members, dressed in sparkling red and blue concert attire, gave viewers a lively SNEAK PREVIEW performance of You’re a Grand Old Flag, helping build excitement for the evening’s event.
North Valley Chorale extends heartfelt thanks to our audience, musicians, volunteers, and supporters for making Voices of Glory such a memorable success. We are grateful for the overwhelming positive feedback and look forward to sharing more inspiring music with our community in future performances.
