[NEohioPAL] Cleveland Chamber Choir: Love in Bloom

[Kira McGirr]

On February 6-8, 2026, join the region's premier professional choir, the
Cleveland Chamber Choir, for "Love in Bloom," an enchanting evening of
music inspired by romance and nature, including music by Benjamin Britten,
Tōru Takemitsu, Eric Whitacre, Morten Lauridsen and Brandon Waddles.

Local high school choirs will join the performances, as part of the choir’s
continuing commitment to education and providing invaluable experiences to
future generations of musicians. These choirs will be the Kent Theodore
Roosevelt High School Choir, a choir from University School, Cleveland, and
a 28-voice honor choir comprising students from seven Ashtabula high
schools.

A portion of all donations collected in Kent and Cleveland will be directed
to Heights Tree People, helping them further their mission of urban
forestry and environmental stewardship. At the Ashtabula performance, a
portion of donations collected will be directed towards Grand River
Conservation Campus. Whether you’re a lifelong lover of choral music or
simply looking for a memorable way to celebrate the upcoming Valentine’s
Day Holiday, Love in Bloom promises to be a night of beauty, harmony, and
giving back.

Charles Edward McGuire, PhD, from Oberlin College & Conservatory, will
present a pre-concert talk 45 minutes prior to each performance.
