- The Rogue Valley Peace Choir is a group of singers dedicated to creating peace in our lives and world through song. We are a community choir with a strong desire to sing and share the ideals of peace, saving the planet, freedom and social justice through weekly practices and community performances. No special musical ability is required; however the ability to sing on key is very helpful. The choir is open to join each September.
The songs that you will hear on the site are from the choirs Annual 2006 Spring Concert where we sing our entire repetoire of the year. Each page has a new song that resides only on that page and can be switched off. Enjoy!
June 22, 2009I have thought many times in these past weeks how
hard it was to imagine a world without Dave in it. I realized this
morning that the reason it's so hard to imagine is because there's no
such thing. This world will never be without Dave. He's so clearly
and absolutely present in the spirit of everything he gave in
his life - ever
We join the entire community in our grief, our joy, and our immense
gratitude.
