The JACOMO Chorale with
The Bountiful String Quartet
The 28th season opened for the Chorale with the performance of Franz Schubert's
MASS no. 2 in G major. The Bountiful String Quartet, along with our
pianist, Ms Velma Tyson, joined the Chorale to performed a truly
wonderful piece of music from 1815 by a composer but 18 years old. After the
intermission, the Chorale was priviledged to have in the audience Dana Mengel
of Independence as the Chorale sang music that he composed. His music
is both uplifting and inspirational, often conveying a message of gratitude for
God's unending care and compassion. To see pictures of the Chorale and the
