Concert Singers invites new members!

Have you ever considered joining a community chorus that requires no auditions, no extensive musical experience, and very low annual dues? The Concert Singers announce the winter-spring rehearsal schedule for 2012. The opening rehearsal is Tuesday evening, January 3, 2012, at the Unitarian-Universalist Church in Swampscott, 101 Forest Avenue, near Swampscott Middle School. No auditions are required, just a willingness to attend rehearsals in January, February, March and April. January 3, 10, 17 and 24 are “open rehearsals,” during which the public is invited to come in and try the music, meet the director and the chorus, and decide on whether they wish to sing in the two concerts. Our performances will be held on Friday, May 4, at 8:00 p.m. in Swampscott, and on Sunday, May 6, at 2:30 p.m. in Lynn. After January 24, the membership will be closed until September 2012. Dues are minimal, as is the cost of the music.

The May program consists of the well-known Mozart Requiem, accompanied by orchestra with a quartet of professional soloists. We will include a world premiere by local composer Javier Marquez entitled “Cantata Domino,” dedicated to conductor William C. Sano, who is celebrating twenty-five years of leadership of the chorus. Second half will feature a guest appearance by the women’s‘ a capella chorus “Calla Lily,” under the direction of Valeria Peterson. Both choruses will combine in a grand finale of American spirituals to end the spring program.

If you need directions or more information please call chorus member Margaret Oleson at 781-639-4558 or Music Director Bill Sano at 978-744-4787.
