Portland Gay Men’s Chorus, “The Blues: from Backwoods to Broadway”
Sunday, March 20, 3:00 PM
Kaul Auditorium
This event is open to the public.
Renowned Portland musician Dave Fleschner and acclaimed blues singer Earl Thomas along with featured PGMC soloists Billy Mixer and Jimmy Wilcox join the Chorus for a blues cabaret this spring. Built on a foundation of core blues elements and drawing on rock, pop, and Broadway influences, Mr. Fleschner's all-new arrangements will showcase a new side of the Portland Gay Men's Chorus. This collaboration is another adventure in PGMC's aspiration to expand, redefine, and perfect the choral art. The Blues: from Backwoods to Broadway will also feature guest performers from United by Music, a nonprofit which offers opportunities for musically talented adults with intellectual disabilities.
