Pgh Lesbian Correspondents

A quick FYI … the Post-Gazette ran a nice piece on the RCC 25th Anniversary concert this weekend (Friday and Saturday).

And once again I must say to those who say we don't get good press, read this …

One of the great debates over the history of gay rights in America is whether the movement should speak with one voice or many.

But it's not an issue in choral singing. Only in joining together can a song or work be understood, and therein lies the strength of gay and lesbian choruses that have arisen across the country in the past half century.

Perfectly captures the essence of what amounts to a daily debate in the LGBT community, particularly the political/activist community.  🙂

One thing I like about Pittsburgh is the name …. it is not the gay and lesbian chorus that purports to be inclusive, the name is inclusive.  For more information about the history of LGBT chorus, click here.

RCC is a Pittsburgh institution and one of the few things that I hear about on a consistent basis — you can't turn around without someone asking if you are going to the next concert.  It is pretty cool, actually.  The power of music to build community.

The article is a lovely read.  Check it out and take note. (Get it?)
