Rainier Youth Choirs’ 15th Anniversary Spring Concert – “Where the Light Begins” – will be performed on Sunday, May 22, 2022, starting at 3 p.m. at New Hope Presbyterian Church in Kent.

The Rainier Youth Choirs organization will celebrate its 15th Anniversary Season with the premier of a commissioned work by recognized poet, Jordan Chaney and composer, Reginald Unterseher. Titled “this light”, the work celebrates hope, life and the “sun in my soul” as a testament to the power and beauty music can bring into the lives of young singers.

The program includes many audience favorites including ‘Touch the Sky’ from BRAVE, ‘Yellow Bird’, ‘Count on Me’, ‘This Little Light of Mine’ ‘I See the Light‘ from TANGLED and works by Diemer, Dilworth, LaBarr and others.

RYC’s performances are well-known for capturing and engaging audiences, with professional-level instrumentalists accentuating dynamic singers.
