Where has the choir visited and performed on tour?
A typical tour stop involves arrival in mid- to late-afternoon, then dinner shared with the congregation. Choral Service of Evening Prayer will follow, and an informal time of fellowship and musical activity will cap the evening. Singers will stay with the host congregation’s families. In 2010, this same approach will be followed with host congregations.
In July 2008, the Lutheran Youth Choir sang twice in the Chicago area (Evanston and Glen Ellyn) before traveling to Germany for its nine-day tour of Berlin, Eisleben, Wittenberg, Eisenach, Munich, and Heidelberg. The choir sang a new Evening Prayer for Peace service in German and English, composed by its director, for host congregations, as well as visiting several historic Luther and Bach sites.
