April is a busy month for Sons of Orpheus, the Male Choir of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥, with four concerts, including a historic collaboration with the Orpheus Male Chorus of Phoenix.
That concert on April 21 will benefit Habitat for Humanity.
The choir will kick things off Saturday, April 7, with the first of three performances of its 27th annual Gala Spring Concert.
This year the men are teaming up with high school choirs to raise money for school choral programs.
The combined choirs will perform a program that includes works by Puccini, Rachmaninoff, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Woody Guthrie and Leonard Cohen.
In addition to the quirky humor from the men, young soloists will get a spotlight during the joint high school performances.
Admission is $15 at the door, $20 for the April 21 joint concert. Here’s the schedule:
