BELFAST — The Penobscot Bay Singers are proud to announce their annual Spring concert in conjunction with the Mount View Chamber Singers. This year the Penobscot Bay Singers will present a selection of choral music from French composers from the last 475 years, Renaissance to the 1960's. Composers include Clemens non Papa, Charpentier, Saint-Saëns, Fauré, and Duruflé.

The Mount View Chamber Singers will sing an a cappella program of various songs. The highlight of the program will be Beautiful Savior, the signature piece of St. Olaf's Choir, sung by both choral groups in their first collaborative sing.

The concerts will be held on Saturday, April 2, at 7 p.m., First Baptist Church, 95 High Street, and Sunday, April 3, 3 p.m., St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, 81 Court Street.

Suggested donation for admission is $15. Accompanied children are admitted free. The Penobscot Bay Singers also accept donations of toiletries and soap for the Waldo County Soap Closet, a non-profit group that supplements the food pantries with toiletries and soaps for those in need.

The Penobscot Bay Singers, originally the Robert Coller Coastal Chorale, has been entertaining audiences in and around Waldo County since 1973. The singers are an eclectic group, ranging from a preteen to singers in their 80s, with varying backgrounds. The common factor is the love of choral music.
