PRESS RELEASE – URGENT – TIME SENSITIVE

MacDowell Male Chorus

P. O. Box 32, Appleton, WI 54912-0032

2008 Concert Program   -           "In the Spotlight"

Each season as the men of MacDowell Male Chorus perform their annual home concerts, we recognize a special group of people from our community. These have included blood donors, military members, community volunteers, and our elderly in elder residence facilities.

This year, the people we will put “In the Spotlight” are those who dedicate their time and talents to provide entertainment for others in the Fox Cities. Many of us in the Chorus are well aware of the sacrifices demanded of those who choose to be on stage. Several of our members have contributed as many as 40+ years of service to the Chorus, and one is actually in his 58th year! As a group, we have a tremendous amount of respect for our fellow Performing Arts brothers and sisters.

This year, our concert schedule is:

MacDowell Male Chorus has been a strong community arts performer in the Fox Valley area for 74 years. Formed during the depths of the Great Depression, the chorus performed its first concert in 1935.

Each year, MacDowell grants scholarships to graduating high school senior men who aspire to further their studies. These scholarships are awarded to soloists who demonstrate proficiency in singing and musical presentation. Auditions, using general music competition criteria, are the basis for scholarship awards. More information is available at www.macdowellmalechorus.org.
