Choral Arts comes to Bainbridge for a concert on Saturday, Oct. 6 at Grace Episcopal Church.

Choral Arts will perform “I Will Lift Mine Eyes” on Saturday, Oct. 6 at Grace Episcopal Church. A pre-concert talk is at 7, the concert is at 7:30 p.m.

As a new tradition, 15 minutes prior to the start of each performance this season, artistic director Robert Bode and members of Choral Arts will lead the audience in a sing-along of popular songs, folk tunes and hymns. Songs such as “Shall We Gather at the River,” “Simple Gifts,” and “O What a Beautiful Mornin” will be led, and Choral Arts will print the words to the songs in the concert program.

Now in its 20th year, the Seattle-based ensemble is dedicated to inspiring, educating and enriching the community through the transformational power of great choral music.
