I have to force myself to go outside and walk these days. This is something I normally love doing. Thankfully I have an encourager here who does suggest I head on out, and I usually take his advice. And then yes, I think to myself, “What a Wonderful World”.
Schola Diffusa | Virtual Choir
This is sweet!

Hope Lingers On
Music by Lissa Schneckenburger
Arranged by Andrea Ramsey
Sung by the Augustana College Summer Virtual Choir 2020
Augustana College
Rock Island, Illinois
This video was recorded by some of the
incoming first-year students at
Augustana College in Rock Island Illinois.
Before recording this project,
these students had never met or sung together.
The choir met to discuss the piece and
work on preparation in five one-hour virtual sessions.
This video is the culmination of their
hard work and dedication to choral music.
As arranger Andrea Ramsey suggests in
the introduction to the score, we find this piece
to be a heartfelt, timely, and determined call for optimism.
