FLORENCE —
The Florence Camerata community chorus, with direction from Dr. Ian Loeppky, director of University of North Alabama Choruses, will present Choral Masterworks March 7 at 7:30 p.m. in Norton Auditorium at UNA.
Joined by the UNA Collegiate Singers and the Florence Camerata Masterworks Orchestra as special guests, the Camerata will present two timeless choral masterpieces: the Bach “Magnificat” and the Lauridsen “Lux aeterna.”
Loeppky founded the Florence Camerata, a community chorus for ages 17 and older, in 2006. Its mission is to provide Shoals area audiences with the finest live choral performances and to provide a musical outlet for those in the Shoals area who love to sing.

Grilling is a simple way to feed your family well this summer. Start with a lean meat and a healthful marinade and then allow the grill to strip away additional fat for a heart-healthy and waist-friendly final result. Plus, grilling caramelizes the natural sugars in foods, which adds flavor without additional calories and fat.
