FINALISTS ANNOUNCED FOR THE WCLV-ST. JOHN CATHEDRAL JUBILATION 2010
WCLV and the Cathedral of St.
John Evangelist in downtown
Cleveland will cooperate in the
third annual regional church choir
festival culminating in the final
rounds at the Cathedral on May 20
and 21, 2010.
Three distinguished judges, former Cleveland Orchestra Chorus conductor, Robert Page; former Mormon Tabernacle Choir Conductor Jerold Ottley; and Director of Choral Activities at Ohio University Peter Jarjisian, will adjudicate. The final sessions will be broadcast live by WCLV.
The WCLV Jubilation Festival 2010 Finalists include:
-
St. Josaphat Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral Choir, Anna Keller, Director
-
Faith United Church of Christ, Mary Ober, Director
-
Cuyahoga Falls United Presbyterian Church Cathedral Choir, Anthony Bianchi, Director
-
St. Joseph Church Senior Choir, Lorene Coughlin, Director
-
Holy Trinity Lutheran Church Choir, Barbara MacGregor, Director
-
St. Sebastian Parish Choir, Lyn Frey-Steward, Director
WCLV President Robert Conrad said; “The mission of this Festival is to remind Northeast Ohio of the beautiful and time-honored tradition of choral music in our houses of worship and to further heighten the standard of music in the 21st century.”
The goal is to acknowledge excellence in choral singing and diversity in styles. The repertoire will include not only western classical music but also the tradition of gospel and other genres. Last year’s Festival brought the house down at St. John’s with some seamless vocal lines from the winning choir of Westlake United Methodist Church, Andy Call, Director.
Choirs will be judged on their technical ability, their musicality and their work as an ensemble. First prize will be $1,000 and a trophy. The five runners-up will also receive cash awards and plaques. Host of the broadcasts live on WCLV before an audience from the Cathedral on May 20th and 21st at 8:00 PM, will be Lloyd Newell, the voice of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir broadcasts.
