2020 SRC Virtual CHORUS

Bringing Song to Our Community During the COVID-19 Pandemic

The Spoon River College Community Chorus Goes Virtual for 2020

The Spoon River Valley looks forward each year to the winter concert of the Spoon River College Community Chorus, which brings together musicians from our region. Singing in groups, however, has been shown since the earliest days of the COVID-19 pandemic to be a risky activity with potential to rapidly spread the novel disease. While we could have skipped our 2020 performance, we instead decided to present a "virtual concert" comprised of the full Virtual Chorus (singing the Hallelujah Chorus from Messiah​ and "Under Winter Moon") and several video selections submitted by local musicians. A virtual chorus allows people in different locations to “sing together” by recording their parts and then having an editor merge them together. Virtual choirs have been around since at least 2010, when composer Eric Whitacre became an early innovator and champion of the process. Click here for an example of a virtual choir, as several of Trinity's choir singers joined this summer with Advent Lutheran Church in Morton to sing the classic Swedish Lutheran hymn "Children of the Heavenly Father." Below are the instructions for participating in this year's concert!
