Voices of Hope Community Chorus will present its fall 2026 concert, “Why We Sing: Exploring the Power of Music” for two performances.
Glenview — November 14 | 7:30 PM Oak Park — November 15 | 4:00 PM
The uplifting program features songs that inspire us, songs that encourage us to persevere, songs whose beauty touches us, and songs with irresistible, contagious energy.&nbsp;It includes music of diverse styles, including gospel, evocative ballads, and hand-clapping/foot-tapping/high-octane get-up-and-dance songs.&nbsp;Among the selections are songs made famous by Elton John, Bob Dylan, Simon &amp; Garfunkel, Gloria Estefan, the Doobie Brothers, and the musical “Hairspray”. Every song in the program has the power to move people in its own, distinct way.
Join us for an exhilarating, soul-stirring afternoon or evening of music and meaning — and walk out at the conclusion feeling better about life than when you entered.
