Think about it: our lives are full of celebrations. During the Christmas season, we celebrated with the major choral work, "A Day for Dancing" by Lloyd Pfautsch. Then, in March we were honored to celebrate our musical talents by performing "Mass in Time of War" by Joseph Hadyn with the <strong>Federal</strong> <strong>Way</strong> Symphony. As you may recall, a group of <strong>Chorale</strong> members had plans to perform this masterwork with other community choirs this Spring at Carnegie Hall, but September 11th changed our plans rapidly as other community choirs cancelled their trips to New York City; making it impossible for the hosts to continue supporting this festival. Though chosen over a year ago as the selection to be performed at Carnegie Hall, it became a most appropriate choice for us to do with the <strong>Federal</strong> <strong>Way</strong> Symphony earlier this year. Now, once more, our thoughts are on our country and our heroes of both the present and September 11th. And so, this evening we perform a group of both patriotic and inspirational songs to show our appreciation for both our country and those who daily put their lives in danger so that we might feel safe, feel free. In a special way, this concert also honors our community's firefighters who do so much for us each and every day. They are truly "Everyday Heroes" and we are proud to give them recognition. The <strong>Federal</strong> <strong>Way</strong> Honor Guard was formed in January 2000. Presently the team consists of 11 members and does various services for the community, including flag ceremonies for major events, such as business openings and funerals.
