The Perry County Lutheran Chorale set to perform at Zion Lutheran Church
The Perry County Lutheran Chorale is on their summer tour through Illinois and Indiana, with the theme “Sola Fide,” and will perform at Zion Lutheran Church on Friday, May 31. Their music will feature a mixture of classical and contemporary repertoire back to the classics of Bach and Schubert through today’s latest arrangements of hymn favorites. Music will include “My Faith Looks Up to Thee,” “Nun Danket alle Gott,” “Just As I Am,” and “Walk Together, Children.”
The Perry County Lutheran Chorale was founded in January 2006 in Perryville, Missouri and is currently its eighth year. The group is comprised of members from area Lutheran Churches. The Chorale's director is Perry County native, Tyson Wunderlich. Tyson brings to the Chorale an array of musical talent, endless energy and creative ideas. He is a graduate of Southeast Missouri State University with a bachelor's degree in piano performance. Tyson received his master's degree in wind conducting from the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston. In addition to directing the Perry County Lutheran Chorale, he serves as Music Director at Saxony Lutheran High School in Jackson.
The mission of the Chorale is "to act as an extension of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod in proclaiming the good news and grace of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all people through song and word; and to prepare and present classical and contemporary choral repertoire in our local settings and beyond."
The Chorale has released two CDs since their debut. The first was “From Depths of Darkness;” the second was “A Perry County Christmas.” These recordings will be available at the concert.
The Chorale has traveled to Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois, Tennessee, and Alabama with the sole purpose of spreading the Word of God. They have helped in disaster relief efforts in their home territory as well as beyond. They present around 10-12 performances per year, ranging from entertainment to concerts to church services.
The concert will take place Zion Lutheran Church, 205 Pulaski St, Lincoln on Friday, May 31 at 7:00 p.m. You can find more information on their website: www.lutheransonline.net/pclc or by emailing pclutheranchorale@gmail.com.
