Music Instructor Lonnie Cline, along with 36 choir mem bers will be participating in ESTO96, a world friendship song and dance festival. “We will be touring the coun try August 3-19 and singing with a choir of over 6,000 for the clos ing ceremonies of the festival,” said Cline. The choir was invited to par ticipate in the special event based on their prior performances of Estonian music in the Portland area. This included an appearance at the West Coast Estonian Song and Dance Festival held last sum mer at the Arlene Schnitzer Con cert Hall. The choir has been invited to repeat their festival performance next year in Vancouver, B.C. Each student has raised about $1500 for this tour and they are still working on bringing in more funds. Towards this effort, the chamber singers will be in con cert in the Gregory Forum at 7:30 p.m. on June 2. A silent auction has also been scheduled for that time. “At that concert we will be performing selections from Carmina Burana by Carl Orff with the CCC Instrumental En semble conducted by Gary Nelson,” said Cline. Pianist Rhonda Yingling will be playing accompaniment. The choir will also perform a variety of choral literature from the Re naissance era. The choir is the only non Estonian choir invited to the fes tival which expects a crowd of 350,000 people. “It is probably the highest honor that a Clackamas Commu nity College choir has received,” Cline said. According to the music in structor, the concert opportunities and the cultural exchange in Es tonia is immeasurable because 85 percent of the Estonian popula tion sings in a choir. The chamber choir and Cline wish to thank the CCC faculty, staff and students for their con tinued support. They are especially grateful to the generous support from the Drama department, Student Ac tivities, the College Foundation and Helle Kalle Merilo and the local Estonian Society.
