GLEN COVE, NEW YORK (FEBRUARY 2023) — Glen Cove High School’s Select Chorale is invited to perform on the opening night concert with choral singers from all over the country. They will be conducted by Dr. Joe Miller, Ms. Robyn Lana and Dr. Henry Leck. Throughout the course of the time there, the singers will be in intense choral rehearsals with the three guest conductors as well as working with the composers of the pieces they are performing. The Chorale will also have a chance to work with the Cincinnati Children’s Choir as well as the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music Choir during their time at the conference. The opening night concert will take place on Tuesday February 21st at the Aranoff Center in Cincinnati, OH.
The Senior Officers of the Glen Cove High School Select Chorale are Ornella Datkhayeva, Samuel Rosenberg and Elle Woska. They expressed, “We are excited to be personally invited to a national conference. After missing out on special opportunities due to the pandemic, we are happy to not only be recognized for our talent, but also able to participate in an awesome opportunity and restore what Glen Cove used to be.”
“I am so very humbled and honored to be a small part of this immensely talented ensemble. The singers have been working very hard to prepare not only the ten selections for the ACDA Conference opening night concert, but their own concert repertoire. Being selected to perform at a National ACDA is a true dream for me personally and I am so thrilled to be able to share this with this fine group of singers. The fact that this is the opportunity of a lifetime is not lost on any of us. We are all truly grateful for this experience.” said Edward Norris
