PORTLAND Gay Men’s Chorus performs two works Sunday at Old
St. Peter’s Landmark in The Dalles.
‘Celebrate the Journey’: Gay
Men’s Chorus performs Sunday
Portland Gay Men’s Cho-
rus performs at the Old St.
Peter’s Landmark in The
Dalles on Sunday, April 12, at
3:p.m. Their concert, “Cele-
brate the Journey,” is part of
its Celebrate Oregon Tour.
Celebrating its 35th anniver-
sary, PGMC has taken con-
certs to Ashland and Rose-
burg in the Fall, Astoria dur-
ing the holidays, and now
travels to Pendleton and The
Dalles.
“Celebrate the Journey”
consists of two major works.
“I Am Harvey Milk,” written
by Broadway composer An-
drew Lippa, celebrates the
life and legacy of the first
openly gay man elected to
public office. When asked
why he wrote IAHM, Lippa
said, "I am Harvey Milk just
as much as you are. We are
all Harvey Milk as long as we
love fairness and honesty
and value balance and com-
passion."
The second half of the
concert is “A Brighter Day:
Songs of Love and Hope,”
written by PGMC member
Doug Bom and Portland
Composer Scot Crandal. It
celebrates progress over the
last 35 years for LGBT equal-
ity.
Bom says, “If listening to
this piece can move an audi-
ence to both remember the
past and celebrate the future,
I will be pleased with the re-
sult. This piece can encour-
age us to feel good in com-
bining our lives with others
and moving forward togeth-
er. That would certainly
brighten my day.”
General admission tickets
are available at the door on
the day of the concert, $10
per person, $5 each for se-
