State Senator Andy Dinniman, D-19th Dist., recently presented members of Concordia Choral Arts with a special Senate citation in honor of their performance at the recent International Day of Peace Concert.

Dinniman presented the citation to Bill McAdoo, President of Concordia Choral Arts, following its performance at the free concert at the First Presbyterian Church in Phoenixville.

The International Day of Peace, established by the United Nations General Assembly in 1981, is observed around the world each year on Sept. 21. 

This year’s celebration featured works of classic and contemporary choral music along with performances by Phoenixville singer/songwriters Anna Spackman and Shawn Cephas, story-telling artist Celeste Montgomery, and local students.

Concordia Choral Arts (CCA) is a non-profit choral organization dedicated to providing an environment that culturally enriches the community through exposure to the performing arts. CCA’s choirs rehearse continually and perform a concert series every year along with outreach performances and hired gigs.
