Community Mixed Chorus at Meredith College

08/25/2021

Due to the Delta variant, we have decided to postpone starting up the Mixed Chorus until at least January 2022. Please keep your eyes peeled for new information posted here, and if you would like to be on our mailing list, email me at [email protected].

I know we will be making music again soon!

Maybe you haven't sung since high school or college.

Maybe you sing on Sunday mornings and want more.

Maybe you're the choir director and miss getting to make the music yourself.

We will be safely rehearsing in person on Sunday afternoons for two hours.

The link to sign up is in a previous post, or you can contact me here for more information.

Today we are excited to share with you our virtual choir project. It was new for many of the singers, and recording yourself singing BY yourself can feel really vulnerable. Congratulations to all the singers, and we hope you enjoy our music.

Join us in the spring! See registration link in the comments below.
