The Sounds of Gold in Concert
Sunday, July 27
4:00 pm
The Sounds of Gold, an a capella ensemble of 35 select voices, will perform in concert at the First Baptist Church of Galax, Virginia, on Sunday, July 27, at 4:00 p.m. The concert will include some of the “popular classics” of both sacred and secular choral literature, including works by J.S. Bach, Sweelinck, and others. Admission to the concert is free. Founded by director Jesse Shearin in 1995, the Sounds of Gold is based in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, with singers coming in from Greenville, Tarbaro, Wilson, Nashville, Pinetops, Roanoke Rapids, Littleton, Scotland Neck, Zebulon, and Belhaven. With a repertoire of polyphonic works from the sixteenth century, arrangements of early American hymn tunes, folk songs, and spirituals, the group aims to perform at the highest level choral works that engage the listener and can withstand the test of time. Recent performance venues include the historic Bruton Parish Church in Williamsburg, the Church of Saint Francis of Assisi in New York City, Canterbury Cathedral, and Christ Church in Dublin, Ireland. For more information about the concert, please call the church office at (276) 236-5185.
