Join the Just in Time Choirs on Saturday, April 30 at the Sid as they present their spring concert – Resilience!

The selection of songs celebrates the human ability to withstand adversity and bounce back through some testing times. They are thrilled to be able to sing for you, together again, in person.

Just in Time is comprised of three ensembles: Unplugged, the Jems, and Vocal Minority. These renowned contemporary choirs perform under the direction of choral conductor Wendy Nixon Stothert. They will be joined by talented musical collaborators Sean Mooney on piano, Britt Bowman on bass, and Beau Stocker on drums.

Every song has been chosen to represent humanity’s resilience, the ability to recover from or adjust to misfortune or change. The set list includes songstress Coco Love Alcorn’s beautiful “Rebirth”, Gloria Gaynor’s anthemic “I Will Survive”, the immortal Frank Sinatra’s “That’s Life”, “Ordinary Day” by Canadian band Great Big Sea and many more uplifting songs.

The singers are engaging, expressive, full of energy and the enjoyment they project in their presentations is obvious and infectious. All three choirs will come together for a memorable finale, featuring the truly inspirational pieces, “Lean on Me”, “We Rise Again” by the Rankin Family and “Hope Lingers On”.
