Pinnacle Concert Series
Spring Music in March
SCOTTSDALE - PHOENIX, Arizona – Spring blooms with beauty and harmony, especially in North Scottsdale at Pinnacle Concert Series. On March 4, the world-renown Phoenix Boys Choir will perform “Vision for Peace,” a moving expression of mankind’s universal desire for peace on earth. With stunning beauty, the voices of the choir powerfully illustrate this dream with a selection of inspired choral masterpieces.
The program features Haydn’s majestic Timpani Mass, written with the distant beat of war pounding in the piece, an emotional tribute to his war ravaged homeland of Austria. Haydn’s traditional mass is contrasted with excerpts from Charles Davidson’s 1968 I Never Saw Another Butterfly, a musical tribute to the children lost in World War II. Hope for peace is woven throughout, especially in the poetry of prayer and majestic tones of Gregorian chant, Verleih uns Frieden (Grant Us Peace) by Heinrich Schütz.
Shifting from ethereal dreams for the future to upbeat timeless entertainment on March 18, Pinnacle Concert Series presents “December ’63: The Music of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.” The music of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons comes to life in this toe-tapping showcase of all the favorites. These are the classics that have been thrilling audiences for decades, plus the most popular singles from the Broadway musical Jersey Boys. This rocking tribute concert will have you reaching for the high notes right along with the musicians!
All concerts begin at 7:30pm at Pinnacle Presbyterian Church, 25150 North Pima Road, Scottsdale 85255.
