Panhandle Chorale and
Panhandle Youth ChoraleCarnegie Hall April 17-21, 2020
Why are we going?
“We travel because we need to, because distance and
difference are the secret tonic to creativity. When we
get home, home is still the same. But something in our
mind has been changed, and that changes
everything.” (J. Lehrer)
“Carnegie Hall is without doubt one of the most
prestigious facilities in the world. And saying that you've
played at Carnegie Hall might just be one of the
ultimate badges of musical honor.” (npr.org)
The learning, preparation, growth, and musical
development that will occur in each school, and in
each individual.
