Recording Notes:
The opportunity to lead one of the world's great male choruses is one I will always treasure. It is, however, more than
a great musical ensemble. It is a group of great PEOPLE who have committed themselves to excellence, both in
their singing and in their relationships with their brothers in song. Each piece on the CD brings so many memories
to mind - the faces of the men in the Glee Club singing from their hearts, the audiences and their reactions to our
singing, the excitement of stepping onto the Hill Auditorium stage, tour performances, and so many more. As the text
of Ron Jeffers' wonderful work states:
"Singing, singing, oh the singing! There was so much singing then! We all sang, and this was my pleasure too."
