2011 Tour in Germany In the summer of 2011, we stayed for one week in a restored medieval castle near Eisleben, Germany, learning and performing a variety of American sacred and secular vocal music together with German students.
In July 2008, the Lutheran Youth Choir sang twice in the Chicago area (Evanston and Glen Ellyn) before traveling to Germany for its nine-day tour of Berlin, Eisleben, Wittenberg, Eisenach, Munich, and Heidelberg. The choir sang a new Evening Prayer for Peace service in German and English, composed by its director, for host congregations, as well as visiting several historic Luther and Bach sites. View photos from the 2008 tour.
In August 2007 the choir made an eight-day tour of the Pacific Northwest, singing Evening Prayer at six Lutheran churches in Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia, and visiting Pacific Lutheran University overnight. Immediately upon returning from tour, the Lutheran Youth Choir was invited to sing at the Opening Eucharist of the ELCA’s Worship Jubilee at Navy Pier in Chicago. View photos from the 2007 tour.
In July 2006, the Lutheran Youth Choir took its inaugural six-day tour of the Great Lakes Region, singing Evening Prayer at four Lutheran congregations in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Ontario, as well as visiting Valparaiso University. |
