The Rogue Valley Peace Choir — now celebrating its 22nd year — is presenting a concert entitled Be a Light. The choir — directed by Rob Griswell-Lowry and accompanied by Mikiko Petrucelli — is a community, secular choir dedicated to building peace, equality, social justice, and stewardship of our planet through song. The concert’s Be a Light theme is inspired by one of the songs in the choir’s repertoire that encourages people not to “hide in the dark,” but to be a light in a world full of hate, to be peace in a time full of war, and to make a difference where change is needed. Other songs in the repertoire express the choir’s passion for recognizing the connection to everyone in our community and beyond; for supporting social justice, diversity and self acceptance; and for treading lightly on our Mother Earth. While the concerts are free, donations of any amount are welcome, with a suggested donation of $15 for adults; no one will be turned away. Donations support the choir’s ability to perform for free at schools, senior homes, and community events throughout the year.

When a cello phenomenon like JJ Tiefenbach is nurtured in Redding, we fellow musicians are eager to play with her! Since she is a high school senior, we might not have this luxury next year. Trio Bonbons is based on 3 sections: piano trios with Sheri Curtis rendering Piazzolla, ranging from sultry Oblivion to joyous freedom in Libertango. Further: O Danny Boy satisfyingly arranged for piano trio; our favorite piano trios by Borodin and Mendelssohn. The second segment features JJ and Alda Turgieva playing cello/piano pieces. Thirdly: string trios with violinist Kiara Schuette in Gwyneth Walker’s spectacular settings of spirituals, Bach’s Goldberg Variations, ending with Dohnanyi’s famous Trio that all string trios aspire to play for its five varied movements.
