The long-running All Classical program Thursdays @ Three opens its next season this week with Doyle\u2019s former choir, Choral Arts Ensemble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KQAC has moved to the third floor of the always eye-catching KOIN Tower near the Keller Auditorium. It\u2019s a gorgeous and expanded footprint (about 33% larger than the Hampton Opera Center) with wood, glass, metal, beveled panels and miles of wires and electronic equipment that would have sent the original Benson teenagers back in 1921 into a techno-geek coma. The desks, studios, the beloved Steinway piano signed by performing artists over the years, and your All Classical Radio hosts are now in their new home. But one space in the Hampton Opera Center, one of great significance to Kay Doyle, had to be left behind \u2013 Roger\u2019s Performance Studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Roger O Doyle Choral Series will not only honor Roger\u2019s passion for the choral arts but also will acknowledge that choral music \u2013 with thousands of singers and choral music lovers across our region, and millions around the world \u2013 is important to all cultures. Choral music has a very strong voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
