Praise
The Santa Clara Choir and the San Jose Chamber Orchestra joined on May 2 to celebrate the centenary of the composer of the region of Baie Kirke Mechem. The concert, scheduled for 8 p.m. at Mission Santa Clara, will also set out room singers and vocal ensembles from the University of Santa Clara Resounding Achord and Sacred and Profane.
Mechem, a former member of the Faculty of Music at the University of Stanford whose 100th anniversary is on August 16, is known for his first opera, “Tartuffe”. He is currently working on an opera adaptation of “Pride and Prejudice” by Jane Austen. Rightly, his choral works include “birthdays: Round Numbers”, a series of songs celebrating the decades that pass, from 10 to 70 years old.
Tickets cost $ 8 $ 50 at https://www.scc.org/may-celebrating-kirke-mechem.html. The under -18s are admitted free of charge.
Universal donors needed
During the national month to raise awareness among trauma in May, the vital non-profit blood service provider will enter the donors to win one of the two vacation packages, including four tickets for Universal Epic Universe Thame Park to Universal Orlando Resort, travel vouchers for the plane ticket and accommodation at the hotel and a prepaid gift card of $ 2500.
The donors of each blood group play an essential role in helping patients. Type O donations are particularly necessary because it is the most transfused blood group. In particular, o Blood negative is often called universal blood group because people from any blood group can receive it.
Vitalant organizes blood collections on Friday May 2, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., in El Camino Ymca at Mountain View and Sunday May 11, from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., in Etz Chaymin at Palo Alto. To make an appointment, visit Vitalant.org or call 877-258-4825.
