The choir had been working really hard, with the recording sessions in February, and a slew of performances in March, so in April we took a little breather from performances, and focused on rehearsing and rejuvenation.

Now it's May, and we're ready to get back in the game! It all starts on Sunday, May 15th, 4pm, with a free performance in Oakland with Cantare Con Vivo Chorale. "I, Too, Sing America," is a celebration of African American history and music, and it will be held at Beebe Memorial Catholic Church - 3900 Telegraph Avenue, Oakland, 94609. If you can't make it then, there are two more performances on the 21st AND the 22nd! Click on the banner below to purchase your tickets for the other two nights. The cost of the tickets will be going towards two wonderful choirs dedicated to serving the community.

 

During the break, one of our members helped OIGC open an EBAY Store! You can help OIGC by going to http://bit.ly/oigcebay, and checking out some of the things on our store site. Plus if you'd like to donate something to the EBAY store, contact us and we'll work out the logistics together.

well, the photo book of our trip last September to NYC has finally been released! I had been waiting for more pictures, but there comes a point when it's time to move on. :) Click below for a preview and to purchase your very own copy ($6 of each book goes directly to OIGC).
