Question: What happens when 66 people who love to sing come together for an entire day to sing beautiful music with an internationally known choral composer and conductor and an accomplished accompanist and conductor?
Answer: A successful Spring Sing 2023 choral workshop, and that is exactly what happened on Saturday, March 11, 2023, when the Northeast Piedmont Chorale hosted its fourth Spring Sing. Sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses from our community and beyond gathered to learn the skills that make performing choral music fun for those singing and memorable for those in the audience.
Spring Sing was a day of meeting new people and making new friends. It was a day of learning new music and applying the techniques we learned for singing that music, culminating in a beautiful concert performance. By the end of the day, we were both exhausted and exhilarated, and we realized that Spring Sing truly reflected the lyrics from the song, Ask Me to Sing, composed by Sally Albrecht and Jay Althouse.
Ask me to sing, and I will give you a part of my heart.
Ask me to sing, and I know nothing can keep us apart.
And when I sing, each note is right and true.
If you ask me to sing, I will sing for you.
Ask me to sing, and I will give you a piece of my soul.
Ask me to sing, and I feel happy and hopeful and whole.
And when I sing, the world seems bright and new.
If you ask me to sing, I will sing for you.
Music is such a magical thing; I feel like my song can fly.
I soar like the wind on eagle’s wing; I lift up my voice to the sky, to the sky.
Ask me to sing, and I will give you a great melody.
Ask me to sing, and I feel bolder and brighter and free.
And when I sing, each note is right and true.
If you ask me to sing, I will sing for you.
Northeast Piedmont Chorale is again hosting Spring Sing on March 11, 2023, in the fellowship hall of St. Catherine of Sienna School, located at 520 W. Holding Avenue, Wake Forest, NC 27587.
Spring Sing brings together people from our community—high school students, college students, and adults—who love to sing. It has been four years since we hosted the last Spring Sing, and we are looking forward to an exceptional day of singing and learning under the direction of Sally K. Albrecht, an internationally known choral composer, conductor, and clinician. Throughout the day, we will work with Sally to learn the music she has selected and the choral techniques that enhance each piece of music.
We will begin the day at 8:30 a.m. with registration when participants will receive all the information and music they will need for the day. There will be a light breakfast available for all to enjoy. Following breakfast, participants will work with Sally to learn their music and choral techniques. At lunch time, a light lunch will be served. Following lunch, we will continue learning our music until 3:30 p.m. At that time, we will have a break to get ready for the concert at 4 p.m. We encourage participants to invite their friends and family to hear the music and choral techniques they have learned throughout the day.
Spring Sing is one of those very special events that happens only once every few years. Make this the year that you participate. Encourage your friends and family members to spend the day singing with you. We promise that you will have an amazing day!
