Liedertafel Harmonie Portland
The Liedertafel Harmonie has been a tradition in Portland since 1923. We are a vital link in Portland’s German community, keeping German culture alive through our concerts, picnics, Federweisser fest, singing at Oktoberfest, and much more. Our annual Christmas concert is the highlight of our yearly schedule, with audience numbers experiencing renaissance. Together with a festive gathering afterwards for a traditional German Christmas dessert buffet, and an authentic German Christmas Cookie bake sale, our concerts have truly become events not to be missed in Portland!
The Liedertafel Harmonie has about 30 active members who meet weekly on Friday nights, under the leadership of a truly gifted and inspiring conductor and artistic director, assisted by a talented and intuitive accompanist. We have a great time singing, followed (of course), by excellent German cookies or cake, and coffee, and wonderful Gemütlichkeit! As with all other choirs in the North Pacific Singing Federation, we are committed to continuing what all of our founding members enjoyed and wanted to preserve: German songs, German culture, the German language, and German Gemütlichkeit, building strong friendships among choir members and their families, as well as with other German choirs in the Northwest, and our community. We are excited to again be at Sängerfest in beautiful Vancouver, BC. |
