  SPRING CONCERT HAS LIVELY INTERNATIONAL FLAVOR
  On May 7th at 3:00 p.m. the Music Ministry of Church of the Saviour in Cleveland Heights will present their Spring Concert. This free program is a lively selection of music ranging from Mayim an Israeli folksong danced and sung by the Agape (Youth) Choir, to Gloria Tibi from Bernstein’s Mass performed by tenor Troy Ayers and the King David (Children’s Choir.) 
  The church's adult contemporary choir, GOOD NEWS, will sing a new rhythmic setting of Holy, Holy, Holy with percussion and Wesley Bells will add to the international flavor of the concert by playing an arrangement of the African hymn Siyahamba.  Also performing on the concert will be Bells of the Saviour directed by Virginia Steiger and the Carol Choir directed by Julie Green.  The Liturgical Dance Ensemble directed by Carol Griffith will present the joyous Psalm 150.
  The featured work on the program will be Benjamin Britten’s cantata, Rejoice in the Lamb which will be performed by the Chancel Choir under the baton of Music Director Judith Higbee with Robert Day handling the complex organ accompaniment.  Soloists will be R. Brooke Baker, Abigail Skully, Troy Ayers and Jason Fair.
  The concert concludes with over 70 voices from GOOD NEWS, Agape and Chancel Choir performing a majestic setting of Psalm 23 which includes a French horn solo which will be played by Lydia Benish, a member of Cleveland’s Contemporary Youth Orchestra.
  Church of the Saviour is located at 2537 Lee Road in Cleveland Heights, one block north of Fairmount Blvd. and the church is handicapped-accessible.
