Buffalo, NY – The Buffalo Philharmonic Chorus and Saint Paul's Cathedral are looking for new music directors. Good morning. I'm Bill Raffel with Music Notes.
After 12 years in Buffalo, Dale Adelmann will become Director of Music at All Saints Episcopal Church in Beverly Hills, California, where one thousand people attend services every Sunday.
Dale succeeded the late Thomas Swan as director of the BPO Chorus about two and a half years ago, while continuing to build the music ministry at Saint Paul's. He's especially proud of getting more women involved, through founding a part-time adult choir and strengthening the Cathedral Girl's Choir.
Dale Adelmann's Final Service at SaintPaul's Episcopal Cathedral will be on Sunday, August 17th at 10 a.m. All three choirs will join in singing works written especially for Saint Paul's.
