Prepare to be serenaded with classics from the golden era of music, featuring hits from Aretha Franklin to the Eagles, and the Beatles to Neil Diamond. This unique concert will see the Cascade Chorale teaming up with Jazz Central for a vibrant showcase of songs that defined the 50s, 60s, and 70s.

“Our aim is to evoke memories and create new ones with tunes that have stood the test of time,” said Barbara Rich, a spokesperson for the Cascade Chorale. “This concert is more than a performance; it’s an active celebration of music that brought—and continues to bring—people together.”

Established on the principle that choral music should be experienced by all, the Cascade Chorale has been at the heart of Central Oregon’s music scene since 1967, bringing diverse choral performances to the community. Since 2012, the organization has offered its Winter and Spring concerts free of charge, a testament to its commitment to making music accessible to everyone. This generous model is made possible through the support of patrons and sponsors whose donations ensure the continuation of these cultural offerings.

The OLDIES BUT GOODIES concert is part of this mission, made all the more special by the collaborators, venue, and the undeniable charm of the chosen music era. Audience members are encouraged to clap along and tap their toes to the rhythm of beloved classics in this celebration of timeless music.

Admission to the concert is free, with donations gratefully accepted to support the Cascade Chorale’s ongoing mission to enrich Central Oregon with high-quality choral music. These funds are crucial for covering operational costs such as hiring musicians, venue rental, and other project-related expenses.

Don’t miss this opportunity to experience a live performance that bridges generations through the universal language of music. Your tax-deductible donation or sponsorship will aid in preserving this cherished tradition, ensuring that beautiful choral music remains a staple of the Central Oregon cultural landscape.

Join us for a weekend of melody, memory, and community spirit. See you there!
