NORWAY — The Norway Memorial Library announces that an Oxford Hills choral group, Vocal Solution, will perform at the library from 7 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 23. Vocal Solution was founded and is based in South Paris.
Members are Kristen Searles, soprano I; Pam Merz, soprano II; Karen Chapman, alto I; Jane Morse, alto II; Kevin Murphy, tenor I; Brian Pfohl, tenor II; Del Leonar, baritone; and Carl Steidel, bass II. Since January 1997, this group has delighted audiences with their varied repertoire that ranges from traditional spirituals to contemporary/popular arrangements. The singers come from different professional and musical backgrounds, but all have the love of choral music in common.
Since its formation, Vocal Solution has performed at a number of community events and church services in western and southern Maine including Maine Music Society’s “Battle of the Blends,” Poland Spring Preservation Society’s summer concert series, and as guests of the Yarmouth-based Royal River Chorus and the Portland-based Downeasters Barbershop Chorus. The women often sing as a quartet called The Del-lights and offer a wide range of musical choices from spirituals to Motown to newer arrangements.
This summer concert is free and open to the public but tickets are required. They are available for free at the information desk starting Monday, July 30, on a first come, first serve basis as seating is limited. For more information, call the library at 207-743-5309 or visit www.norway.lib.me.us.
