Just the human voice, at once the simplest yet perhaps most amazing instrument of all, that was the focus of Wild Mountain Thyme's work chosen for the Kathaumixw International Choral Festival in Powell River, British Columbia last July. Wild Mountain Thyme, a chamber choir with 18 singers, returns home to Bonners Ferry to share this exploration with unaccompanied vocal works ranging from classic pop to Bach. Wild Mountain Thyme was one of 30 international choirs chosen from more than 60 applicants for the festival. Their international festival concert, "SIMPLY VOICES: singing it a cappella from Bach to rock," will be performed in Troy, Mont. at Northwest Music at 7:30 p.m. (Montana time) on Friday Oct. 13 with optional dinner before the concert. Cover charge is $5.
