Hi, friends,
I am so grateful to have gotten this announcement from guitarist Michael Mandrell.
I will be going to this incredible Earth concert in Portland,
Sunday, Aug. 24, 4pm, downtown (more details below),
taking friend Laurie Schaad for an early celebration of her 65th birthday!
And I feel that so many of you might be blessed by this opportunity, so I’m passing this along!
Feel free to look for us and create a blanket of loving friends surrounding Laurie (and me ;-)
I have highlighted some favorite aspects of the concert in blue bold below.
The concert rate is very reasonable, and there is no additional fee associated with purchasing the tickets.
I look forward to seeing some of you there.
It would be lovely to have an email reply if you plan to attend and will be watching for us.
And I have to share about another incredible synchronicity… Just the day before I was sharing with Laurie that my vision (which first began June 25, 2012) for a very special concert, has been expanding, and I even thought of possibly having animal voices included in the music. Look below to see how 24 hours later I learned that this piece of my vision is a reality! Wow! I love it when that happens!
Celebrating Life in all its forms,
Jeanine

Subject: Missa Gaia (Earth Mass) Portland Performance
Date: August 18, 2014 at 10:24:27 AM PDT
Friends,
I’m delighted to be part of the ensemble for a remarkable production of the Paul Winter Consort’s Missa Gaia. You might remember this beautiful cutting edge album from so long ago. I do, and am thrilled to be performing with director Susan Peck, a stellar group of musicians and a 65 member chorus to recreate this lovely Earth Mass.
Cheers,
Michael
Susan Peck is producing and directing a performance of Paul Winter’s Missa Gaia/Earth Mass on August 24, in partnership with local non-profit Friends of the Columbia Gorge. The music celebrates the sacred beauty of Mother Earth and all her creatures with chorus, solo voices, chamber ensemble, pipe organ, rhythm section, world-beat percussion, and the voices of timber wolves, harp seals, humpback whales, thrushes and loons.
This project is partly supported by a community participation project grant from RACC (Regional Arts and Culture Council). Peck has assembled a one-time festival community chorus of 65 voices, with singers from several local churches and community choirs including Portland Gay Men’s Chorus, Portland Lesbian Chorus, Aurora Chorus, Satori, Portland Peace Choir, Sing Portland, and PDX Vox. Singers in the choir have explored the Gorge on a number of hikes, and were filmed by MetroEast Community Media as they serenaded Wahkeena Falls with excerpts from the concert.
Vocal soloists are Lauri Jones (New Thought Center for Spiritual Living, Cabaret Chanteuse) and Dustin Hunley (First Unitarian Church). Ensemble includes Mary Ellen Grace (soprano saxophone), Liz Byrd (‘cello), Betty Booher (English horn), Joe O’Donnell (pipe organ), Mitchell Falconer (piano), Michael Mandrell (guitar), Chip Herbert (bass), Tim Rap and Dianna Hnatiw (percussion). Michael Mandrell will play an opening set.

Keeping you both in my prayers!
Spending lots of time dealing with my mom’s dementia (research and communication), so I’m waiting until I have an opening to see what I can do to help with you folks.
Well wishes for speedy and comfortable and ease-y recovery and support,
Jeanine
