WA's WICA Chamber Singers Present MUSIC OF THE 60's & 70's, 5/11

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts Conservatory will transport audience members back across decades with "WICA Chamber Singers: Music of the 60's & 70's," Friday, May 11 at 7 p.m.

All ages are invited to the pre-show hors d'oeuvre benefit reception and special performance in Zech Hall starting at 6 pm. "WICA Chamber Singers: Music of the 60's & 70's" is a special benefit for the WICA Chambers Singers with local favorite Keith Mack as emcee. Funds raised directly support tuition, operating costs, music, and performance opportunities in the communities of South Whidbey Island and beyond.

The full concert follows the pre-show on the WICA main stage-where the talented WICA Chamber Singers will perform songs integral to the 60s and 70s. It's a unique era in music and cultural history and the Singers will pay homage with a capella versions of Beatles songs, Americana and jazz standards. Among the gems you can expect to hear: Age of Aquarius, Pink Panther, Peter Gunn, Shadow of your Smile, and the powerful Testament of Freedom, an adaptation of letters from Thomas Jefferson by Randall Thompson.

Tickets are $15, $25 and $50. The special concert and benefit reception in Zech Hall begins at 6 p.m. The concert begins on the main stage at WICA at 7 p.m.
