Choral Society (For Lori Gordon)

choral-society

This past fall I attended the funeral service for my partners grandmother. Her whole life she had a love of music. During the service the pastor led the entire service in singing her favorite song. It was an incredibly moving and beautiful experience having all of those people who loved and respected her in her life together in this room singing for her. I thought it was tragic that we did not think to do this for her before her passing.

I have decided to do a series of performances where I select a person that I love and admire and form a choir of their loved ones to sing them their favorite song.

The first person that I chose is a close friend, Lori Gordon. The song selected by Lori for this performance was Instant Karma by John Lennon.
