PGMC TYPICALLY HOLDS THREE MAIN CONCERTS AND A NUMBER OF SMALLER EVENTS EACH YEAR. HOWEVER, WITH THE ARRIVAL OF COVID-19 PGMC WAS FORCED TO CANCEL MOST OF ITS 2020 SEASON AS IT LOOKED TOWARDS RESTARTING IN 2021. HOWEVER, CONTINUED PANDEMIC RESTRICTIONS MEANT THAT VENUES WERE SHUTTERED AND THERE WAS NOT GOING TO BE LIVE PERFORMANCES FOR THE ENTIRETY OF 2021. PGMC REBOOTED AND CREATED A VIRTUAL SEASON INSTEAD. THE SEASON BEGAN IN OCTOBER WITH A HALLOWEEN EVENT THAT FEATURED GUEST PERFORMERS FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY AS WELL AS FEATURED SINGERS AND DANCERS FROM THE CHORUS. THE MOST WONDERFUL SEASON, PGMC'S HOLIDAY SEASON WAS RENAMED "SNOWED IN AND WENT VIRTUAL IN MID-DECEMBER (STREAMED 5 TIMES IN TOTAL TO AN AUDIENCE IN EXCESS OF 3,500 PEOPLE). SPRING SAW US PUT TOGETHER OUR RETROSPECTIVE CONCERT "REFLECTIONS" WHICH CELEBRATED OUR 40TH ANNIVERSARY "BELATEDLY", FOLLOWED BY OUR A CAPPELLA GROUP CASCADE, PRESENTING ITS FIRST EVER CONCERT EVENT AND WE ENDED THE SEASON WITH OUR PRIDE CONCERT THAT WAS VIEWED BY OVER 2,500 PEOPLE. WHILE EARNED INCOME WAS NON-EXISTENT, PGMC DID WELL IN DONATIONS AS ALL OUR STREAMED EVENTS WERE "FREE" BUT DONATIONS GRACIOUSLY ACCEPTED. WE ANTICIPATE THAT WELL OVER 7,500 PEOPLE VIEWED OUR STREAMED CONCERTS DURING THE SEASON.
