SUMMARY:Just in Time Choirs Spring 2025 Concert "New Orleans"
DESCRIPTION:Just in Time Choirs present “New Orleans”\, their Spring Concert at the Sid Williams Theatre in Courtenay at 7:00 pm on Saturday April 26th.   \nJoin us in celebrating the fabulous\, diverse music of this vibrant and iconic city\, the city that gave us Louis Armstrong\, Harry Connick Jr.\, Jon Batiste and John Boutte to name just a few. The songs are legendary. The choirs will be covering much loved tunes like “Iko Iko” by Dr John\, Hank Williams’ “Jambalaya”\, the trifecta of “Sweet”\, “Freedom”\, and “It’s All Right” by Jon Batiste\, the cherished “Mr Bojangles” by Jerry Jeff Walker\, and a reprise of a choir favourite\, “Proud Mary”. And of course\, a New Orleans set list would not be complete without Harry Connick Jr’s “It Had to be You” and “What a Wonderful World” by the master\, Louis Armstrong. \n“The music borne of the vibrant multicultural hub of New Orleans has heavily influenced modern music genres such as jazz\, blues\, R’n’B\, and gospel\,” says Wendy Nixon Stothert\, Just in Time’s founder and choral conductor. “With 40 of us from Just in Time having travelled to NOLA during March Break\, we’ve gleaned a deeper understanding and appreciation of the musical legacy of New Orleans and we’re looking forward to sharing that with our audience.” \nNow in their 20th year\, the thriving Just in Time Choirs organization comprises three ensembles: Unplugged (everyone welcome)\, and the smaller auditioned groups\, the Jems and Vocal Minority. These renowned local contemporary choirs will be joined by talented musical collaborators: Sean Mooney on piano\, Britt Bowman on bass\, Beau Stocker on drums\, and special guest\, Rachel Cooper on clarinet and saxophone. The infectious joy that all three choirs project in their presentations is uplifting and entertaining and has the audience tapping their feet and singing along.  \nTickets are $28.00 for adults\, $15.00 for children 12 & under (including fees). There is also a live stream option for $28.00 per household\, and we are again offering a limited number of Community Supported Tickets at $15 for those under financial constraint. Tickets and full details available online from the Sid Williams Theatre or the Just in Time web site. Tickets may be purchased at the door\, subject to availability\, but patrons are encouraged to purchase tickets early as performances regularly sell out. \nSo\, if you “Feel like funkin’ it up” join us at the Sid. We look forward to sharing the joy of singing with you and welcoming you to the show!
