The Gettysburg Choral Society, under the direction of John McKay, will present a pair of patriotic concerts entitled “God Bless the U.S.A.” on Memorial Day weekend. The concerts will honor America as the chorus pays tribute to our armed services and gives thanks for those who, in the words of Abraham Lincoln, "gave the last full measure of devotion.” Showcasing the music that celebrates our great country from the Civil War to the present, some of the program’s favorites will include “The Battle Hymn of the Republic,” “God Bless America,” and “God Bless the U.S.A." There will be a special recognition of our veterans as the chorus presents "A Tribute to the Armed Services.” Those men and women who have faithfully served our country in the military are encouraged to attend and be recognized for their service. Legendary bugler Jari Villanueva, the country’s foremost expert on military bugle calls, will be present to play taps. The Gettysburg Choral Society, Inc. is a nonprofit 501©(3) organization composed of auditioned singers who utilize their talents to pursue excellence in choral music performance. As always, the concerts are free and open to the public. Tax-deductible contributions are appreciated to help defray concert-related expenses.
