PNC Bank is sponsoring new and innovative collaborations with a 3 year 1.5 million dollar initiative. This concert brought together the Columbus ProMusica Chamber Orchestra, The Columbus Gay Men's Chorus, and Columbus Children's Choir for a first-time, one-of-a-kind performance. As if that unusual collaboration didn't have all of the bases covered, they performed Srul Irving Glick's Psalm Trilogy, Leonard Bernstein's Chichester Psalms, and Abraham Kaplan's Choruses from Glorious with many of the texts sung in Hebrew and English. They performed in the newly renovated (rebuilt) Lincoln Theatre in the revitalized Mt. Vernon district.
