THE COALITION
is a diverse group of people singing an irresistible variety of American popular music. Students
and community members from all walks of life, from professional musicians to first-timers,
work side by side to study and perform the abundance of styles that make up the music of
America.
Now in its 18th year, the Coalition has proved to be much more than a choir. It is a family of
music lovers who come together to share their hearts and blend their voices in joyous
harmony.
Dr. Kirby Shaw is a master of stylistic diversity and a
pioneer in choral music education. His numerous
arrangements and compositions are sung around the
world. He is a teacher and performer extraordinaire.
THE DIRECTOR
was a proposed U.S. state that would
span contiguous, mostly rural areas of
southern Oregon and northern California.
As early as 1852 there were attempts to
gain statehood. The most recent was in
1941, an effort that was abruptly ended
by the attack on Pearl Harbor. But the
Jefferson State spirit of independence
and individuality lives on.
