Stand By Me: Tallahassee Civic Chorale Summer Concert

At 7:30 pm on Friday, June 21, the Tallahassee Civic Chorale will present a concert of favorite songs on the topic of friendship and community, at Turner Auditorium at Tallahassee Community College. The concert is entitled Stand By Me, and will include the version of this song made popular last year at the royal wedding! Other songs include “Thank You for Being a Friend” from the tv show The Golden Girls, and “What a Wonderful World.”

“I love our summer concert each year,” says Board member Pat Pieratte. “Not only do we get to sing upbeat, popular songs as a group, but we also get an opportunity to hear songs prepared by our Chorale members, based on the concert theme. We really have a lot of talented people, and the audience is in for a real treat!”

Now in its 33rd year, the Chorale sings under the direction of Dr. Leslie Heffner, and is the official Chorale of Tallahassee Community College. Tickets are free for TCC students and staff, with ID, and only $9 for adults and $7 for students and seniors. Advance tickets can be purchased through Brown Paper Tickets at https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/3904901?fbclid=IwAR1_BVZ1c-saVZahhoypeDd0qR2JjnofdSpKAzpJcwC8JhVxhn8Tjo9Vq-U, or tickets may also be purchased at the door.

Following the concert, the Chorale will extend the feeling of community and friendship by hosting a cupcake and punch reception. So come stand by me and join the fun!
