Choral Society offers Spring Concerts April 20-21

Mission Valley Choral Society’s Spring Concert Weekend begins with a concert at 1 p.m. Saturday, April 20, at the St. Ignatius Mission and ends with a concert at 4 p.m. Sunday, April 21, in Polson at the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church.

A meal will be served immediately following the Sunday concert in the church basement.

The community choir, directed by Cathy Gillhouse, will present an 11-piece program that includes classical, contemporary sacred, spiritual, gospel, barbershop and American folk songs. The choir of more than 30 voices has existed in the county since the 1960s, and brings a diverse group together united to bring joy through music.

Concerts are free and open to all. A free-will offering will be taken on Saturday to help the choir with music expense. Sunday’s free-will offering and proceeds from the meal of ham and scalloped potatoes served following the concert will benefit Helping Hands of Mission Valley.

Information is available on the MVCS website, missionvalleychoralsociety.org, or Facebook page, or by calling 406-261-3304 or 406-260-6103.
