The concert date will be determined when gathering is COVID-safe. Remote rehearsals started in October and community members who can match a pitch and love to sing can still join. The group is especially encouraging tenors and basses to join. Dues are $40 for the semester. A limited number of music scores are available, or one can be purchased on Amazon for $9.
