ORPHEUS CLUB MEN'S CHORUS TO PERFORM AT KASSCHAU SHELL

            The Orpheus Club Men’s Chorus of Ridgewood will perform at the Kasschau Memorial Shell, behind the Ridgewood Library on Veterans Field, on Tuesday evening, July 8, 2014 at 8:30 pm as part of the Village’s “Free Concert Under the Stars!” series.

            Founded in 1909 the Orpheus Club is the oldest cultural institution in  the Village, featuring a chorus of over 50 men. Under the direction of John Palatucci, and accompanied by pianist Ron Levy, the Chorus’ repertoire extends to musical genres from classical to hip-hop, from Broadway tunes to sea shanties.

            The July 8 concert will feature “Flanders Fields,” “Shenandoah,” “America the Beautiful,” a medley from “My Fair Lady,” and the Bruno Mars hit “Just the Way You Are,” among other selections. Linda Sweetman-Waters will accompany the Chorus as guest pianist. The Orpheus Club will also welcome to the stage “Express Male,” a sextet vocal ensemble within the Morris Choral Society.
