The Kootenay Musical Theatre Society is excited to present Forty Words for Yes, a 40-part choral work by Nelson composer Doug Jamieson. Forty singers, recorded from around the world, including many talented local musicians, sing words that mean ‘yes’ in their mother tongues. Come to St. Saviour’s Church, June 9-11 at the corner of Silica and Ward Streets in Nelson, to hear a 10-minute presentation of the work played on 8 synchronized surround sound stereo systems. Colourful banners by Kootenay artist Alf Crossley enhance the experience.
