Chanticleer

On Tuesday I received an e-mail from Bass Hall about their upcoming concerts.  It mentioned a special concert price to see the group Chanticleer for those who are faculty, staff and students.  I called Karen and asked if she wanted to go and then ordered the tickets.

We went to the concert and had a wonderful time listening to this group.  There was music from the 14th century to the present, all in a capella.  Part of their visit to Fort Worth was to visit 10 different high school choirs to give Master Classes.  There were many school buses outside the hall, with lots of teenagers going to the concert.  It was such a joy to see them there, listening to this group and getting the chance to hear different kinds of music.

If you ever get a chance to see the group, do so.  You'll be pleasantly surprised.
