The Tulsa Boy Singers will present a spring concert of sacred and secular choral music at Trinity Episcopal Church, 500 S. Cincinnati Ave. in downtown Tulsa, this Friday, May 30, 2014, at 7:30 p.m.

Repertoire from the concert includes:

• Sound of Music medley by Rogers and Hammerstein

by Henry Loosemore
• "The Lord Is My Shepherd," the theme from TV's "The Vicar of Dibley," by Howard Goodall
• "Magnificat" and "Nunc Dimittis," by Herbert Sumsion
• "Songs of a Prospector," poems by British Columbia pioneer and miner George Winkler, set to music by Stephen Chatman
• "Winds," a poem by the students of Faywood School in Toronto, set to music by Larysa Kuzmenko
• "At the River," Aaron Copland's adaptation of the traditional gospel hymn

As an added bonus, violinist Joseph Bates, a veteran TBS singer, will present the first movement of Bruch's Violin Concerto No. 1 in G minor.

There will be a reception with savory and sweet treats after the concert. Boys interested in joining TBS for next year may audition immediately after the concert -- just a quick test of ability to hear and follow a melody.
