You will not want to miss this weekend’s performance of Diverse Harmony- the nation’s first gay-straight alliance youth chorus.
I sat down expecting to be charmed by a group of idealistic young songbirds. What I witnessed was a powerful performance by a seriously talented group of young artists that nearly brought me to tears.
Scott Rice at Seattle Gay News spoke with members of the group and you can find that inspiring article here.
After they performed, these young people were so engaging and enthusiastic that during the subsequent interview, the few notes I took were unintelligible. I was so enthralled by what they had to say and moved by their performance, I think I just wanted to sit back and absorb their formidable energy.
Friday and Saturday May 15-16 at 8pm at Seattle First Baptist Church. $10 admission or free for those 22 and under.
