VOICES OF HOPE

Humanitarian Choir and Instrumentalists

Artist Lynden Keith Johnson

A message from Voice of Hope director Henry Mollicone

Hello Friends –

Voices of Hope (VoH), Humanitarian Choir and Instrumentalists is ready to continue the beautiful momentum that began in 2018 with free concerts to raise funds and awareness for people underserved in our local communities.

I’m delighted to share that I have just completed my latest work Requiem for George Floyd. The choir has received the score and for now we are virtually familiarizing ourselves with it. Our big hope is to return to rehearsals and live concerts featuring Requiem for George Floyd and other favorites in Winter ’22.

As we begin to put the logistics into place – we’d love to hear from you if you would like to collaborate as a church with performance space, are a non-profit organization focused on support services and programs or as a musician – a singer or instrumentalist – who would like to contribute your time and talent. There are many ways to be involved with VoH – please reach out.

I am so very proud of Voices of Hope and how through the Power of Music, we can make a meaningful difference.

Be Well and See You Soon.

In Appreciation,
– Henry

MUSIC DIRECTOR’S NOTE
Our intention is to make a small difference by calling attention to our brothers and sisters suffering in poverty and to raise funds to assist them in their lives. We do this by giving concerts that feature musical works based upon social justice issues. Our programs also feature speakers, slide shows, etc.

We hope to touch the hearts of our audience with music, and raise awareness of the problems we have in our country with the vast number of people in poverty.
