People on different sides of the gun issue, the abortion decision and even the Donald Trump presidency can find common ground listening to the strains of Bach or belting out the joyous lyrics of a gospel hymn.

That and more is possible this holiday weekend, thanks to the abundance of musical talent in our region. Mezzo Soprano Amy Yovanovich is music director at the State Street Academy of Music in Harrisburg. And tenor Chris Seay is Artistic Director of the Capital Area Music Association a community choral organization with emphasis on the music of the African American Composers and Culture. Both Yovanovich and Seay bring serious vocal talent to a wide range of genres, from spirituals to Broadway.

The members of this trio manage to harmonize their music despite the obvious differences in their instruments and native cultures. Anthony is principal clarinet of the New York Philharmonic, and Demarre McGill is principal flute of the Seattle Symphony. When they harmonize with McHale, their fans promise the result is an unforgettable musical experience.
