West Shore choir invites audience to tune back in to golden era of radio

For many, the golden era of radio is a time of happy memories. Families tuned in to programs all together in the living room, couples danced to toe-tapping classics, and popular music shows drew millions of listeners across America. That time period lasted until around the 1950s, when television became popular. Pacific Edge Chorus is bringing audiences back to those warm moments with their creative tribute, Harmony Hits the Airwaves. The chorus, a passionate group of women who stage a fabulous musical production every two years, will perform live with dynamic quartets Cascade, Chrysalis and Rumour Has It. The music they perform won't just be from yesteryear — it will also feature today's chart toppers, appealing to a broad audience. Leading it all will be a charismatic announcer "on air", guiding the audience through the fun. Those who want to "tune in" can mark their calendars for Saturday, Nov. 29, at 2 p.m., when the concert will take place at the Dogwood Auditorium at Royal Roads University, 2005 Sooke Rd., Colwood. Tickets, $25, are available at pacificedgechorus.ca [http://pacificedgechorus.ca].
