The Glenmuir High School Choir is now in final preparation for its summer concert season titled, AJOYO: CELEBRATING JAMAICA 50.
Three concerts will be held over the last three weekends in September, with the first being Saturday, at the school auditorium in May Pen.
The other two concerts will be at the Courtleigh Auditorium, Kingston on Saturday, September 22, and Sunday, September 30. All concerts start at 7:30 p.m.
A wide range of musical genres will be performed by the 36-member choir.
The mostly new repertoire for this season will include songs with African roots, Negro spirituals, Jamaican popular forms, including a rendition of popular festival songs and European classical songs.
On the programme, of course, will be a choral version of the Jamaica 50 Campaign song developed by the choir at the request of the Jamaica 50 Secretariat.
The choir has done several performances of this song and recently performed it on TVJ's 'Smile Jamaica'.
The internationally acclaimed choir is well known for the high quality of its performances, representing Glenmuir High School both locally and overseas.
Only recently, the choir was invited by Jamaica Awareness Inc to participate in Culturama in Florida, USA.
Culturama is a series of concerts staged in Orlando, Tampa and Miami, in celebration of Jamaica's Emancipation and Independence.
The funds raised from the concert series will ensure the sustainable excellence of the choir and the school. Tickets are now available for the May Pen leg of the concert series at Tolan's Texaco (formerly Leiba's Esso) at the corner of Manchester Avenue and Glenmuir Road, and Juici Patties, Guinep Tree outlet.
