Sacred Heart Men's Choir, Caro
It's all about the Bass...
Irv DeRoche: Irv can be heard harmonizing with Dale on several of our recordings, and has a solo in “Count On Me.” He joined the choir after hearing Dale, Dan Bristol, and Dan Stockford singing together at mass – they didn’t require and audition! Irv loves music of all kinds, especially vocals, and listens to Celine Dion, David Phelps, Collin Raye, and many, many more. Irv’s favorites from our recordings include Hosea, The Angels Rolled the Stone Away (that’s Irv on the tambourine), If Every Day Was Like Christmas, and You Will Always Be a Child In My Eyes. Irv (and the rest of the singers) feel honored and blessed to have our excellent instrumentalists to accompany the singing.
Bill Learman: Bill has been active with the Knights of Columbus, holding positions at the council and district level, as well as singing in our choir since 2002. He is perhaps the most well travelled in the choir – his work has taken him to China, Poland, and many other areas of the world. His favorites include One Copper Penny; In the Breaking of the Bread; Mary, Did You Know?; and I Will Lift You Up. He also likes the version of Amazing Grace/My Chains Are Gone which we have yet to record.
Matt Perez: Matt is a more rcent addition to the choir. Besides serving as Grand Knight of the KC’s, Matt has served on numerous boards in the church and with the Knights, but still finds time to help the choir. His favorites include How Great Thou Art; Sweet Baby Jesus; The Angels Rolled the Stone Away; Just a Closer Walk With Thee; Mary, Did You Know?; I Will Lift You Up; and They Gave Us Their Best from our recordings. Matt also likes Amazing Grace/My Chains Are Gone, a song the choir has sung lately but does not have on a recording.
