Under the baton of Dr. Susan Medley, WSO and SHCC celebrate the joys of childhood in Francisco J. Nuñez’s “Red Light, Green Light” featuring games of youth, like “Miss Mary Mack” and “Pizza Pizza Daddy-o”. Singers will share the Swahili lyrics of the Lord’s Prayer from Christopher Tin’s “Baba Yetu” in the Civilizations 4 video game series. Enjoy a bit of vocal jazz in David Elliott’s “Kentucky Jazz Jam”. Who knew math could be fun? According to Pittsburgh’s own composer Lynn Purse, the Fibonacci sequence was the perfect concept to set to music. Purse’s composition “Fibonacci, What a Notion!” highlights the intricacies of mathematics and the natural world. Delight the family with some wholesome fun and games March 16 and 17. Tickets can be purchased at washsym.org, or email office@shcchoir.org.
