Bernstein, Bach and Brunner!

Just back from a memorable weekend with the singers of Glenbrook North and South high schools, culminating in two concerts yesterday in the stunning Divine Word Chapel at Techny, Illinois.   Bernstein, Bach and Brunner! (and Mulholland, Biebl, Vivaldi, Whitacre, Lauridsen and others…)  The chapel is the predominant building of a surprising prairie seminary established in the 1920s by the Society of the Divine Word, with magnificent stained glass, a unique gallery that circles the entire church and a sumptuous acoustic.  Bravo to the singers and players, their inspiring and dedicated directors, and all who contribute to the thriving arts environment at the Glenbrook schools!
