Counterpoint comes to Belle!

Who needs an orchestra?

Renowned choral maestro Robert De Cormier leads an eight person mixed choir for the next installment of the Center of the Nation Concert Series at the Belle Fourche Community Center.

Counterpoint takes the stage at 7:30 p.m., next Monday, March 16th in a performance that will include choral chamber music from around the world. The program will include classical works, the folk music of Stephen Foster and a host of spirituals and work songs all of which helped launch Robert De Cormier into legendary status.

Among the music you can expect to hear: Stephen Foster's Camptown Races and John Henry; traditional folk tunes like Frankie & Johnny and Walk Together Children. Add a dab of spiritual and classical music from the likes of Benjamin Britten and Maurice Ravel, and you have the ingredients for a delightful evening!

Join your friends and neighbors for another fun evening in the 2008-09 concert series as Robert DeCormier brings Counterpoint to the northern Black Hills.
