What We Sing
We sing two main concerts each year. In the fall we rehearse for our Christmas concert featuring traditional carols and varied seasonal fare representative of the various styles and moods of the season. The spring season is highlighted by show tunes, Americana, popular and movie classics. Here are some of our recent programs with links to a few recorded selections.
