NCS Music Director, Dr. Minji Kim

Please mark your calendars and join us for our spring concert entitled “Resilience and Hope.”  The concert will celebrate the valor and strength of the human spirit—resilience and courage in facing the challenges of war, discrimination, pandemics, climate and environmental threats—and the redeeming power of hope as we face these challenges together.

Selections include compositions by female composers such as French prodigy Lili Boulanger, contemporary African-American composer Rosephanye Powell, and Hye-Young Cho, composer-in-residence for the National Chorus of Korea. The chorus will also perform the beautiful Duruflé Requiem.

The concerts will be performed at the brand new Pentucket Regional High School Auditorium, located at 24 Main Street in nearby West Newbury. There is ample parking in front of the school, and the auditorium is located just off the main lobby/front entrance to the building.
