Dear Singers,
Happy New Year to you all! Hope this email finds you happy and healthy. Our Spring plans are in place and hope to see you all come and sing with us this year!
At the Bedford Presbyterian Church on April 18 and 19, we will perform our Spring Concert. The program will include Antonio Vivaldi’s Magnificat, Franz Joseph Haydn’s Missa Brevis in F major, Jan Dismas Zelenka’s Magnificat in D and selections from Johann Sebastian Bach’s Cantatas. Joining us will be Patricia Green and Leslie Fagan along with Mela and Alex Tenenbaum and our favorite orchestra friends. The music is alive with rich texture and wonderful harmonies.
Rehearsals begin Monday, January 26, at the Fox Lane Middle School Little Theatre on the Fox Lane Campus, Rt. 172 in Bedford. Registration for singers will be at 7:30 PM, rehearsal from 8-10 PM. In the event of inclement weather or any other problem, we will use email to notify everyone should there be a need to cancel or reschedule rehearsal.
