Sunday’s concert features ‘Best of Big Band’

Canyon Lakers are invited to enjoy an afternoon of nostalgic melodies of the 20s, 30s and 40s presented by the Canyon Lake Choraleers.

With the theme, “Best of Big Band,” the concert is scheduled to being at 3 p.m. in the Holiday Bay Room at the lodge.

General Admission tickets are $15; VIP tickets are $20. Tickets can be purchased at the POA office, at brownpapertickets.com and from any Choraleers member.

Director Lorliee Bajema selected well-known songs from the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s for this year’s concert. In addition to Canyon Lake’s resident pianist Lynda Salina, 16 members of the Elsinore High advanced jazz ensemble will accompany the chorus, as well as serenade guests with a few of their own favorites like “Autumn Leaves,” “Misty” and “In the Mood.”

The concert will include an opportunity drawing during intermission that includes a cash prize. The no-host bar will feature a special themed drink.

Under POA rules, tickets alone will no longer be accepted for gate entry. Non-Canyon Lake residents must be on a Canyon Lake resident’s guest call-in list to gain entry into the community.

The Choraleers is a vocal group of men and women who enjoy singing in a choral group that performs spring and fall concerts, including combinations of selected singers and solo performances. Membership is open to residents and those in nearby communities.
