Now It’s Your Turn, Youth Chorus!

Dear youth singers and parents,

We haven’t forgotten about you!!

As you may know, rehearsals were well underway, when everything came to a “screeching halt” in March, due to the pandemic.

So, we came up with the idea to create a virtual choir video, and began with the adult chorale. If you haven’t seen it yet, here is the link to their performance:

… and now it’s your turn!! The piece we have chosen is the Sound of Music favorite, “Do-Re-Mi”. Just FYI, here’s a link to a performance of this arrangement:

If you’d like to participate – and we so hope you will! – please let me know as soon as possible, at elizabethpesce@comcast.net or 617-335-8155, and I’ll send you the details!

Warmest regards,
Betsy

You are invited to participate in our next virtual concert!

Dear friends,

I hope this note finds you and your families enjoying this very seasonable start to fall!

First off, once again, I want to thank all those of you who were able to participate in our very first “virtual choir“ video…you all did a great job! And now I would like to extend an invitation to ALL of you who would like to do so to participate in our next one!

I have chosen another of the pieces we were working on together – “Lift Every Voice and Sing”. As you may recall, we had intended for this to be the opening piece for our spring concert. Just for your reference, here is a link to the publisher’s demo performance of this arrangement:

I think, given everything that is happening in our country right now, this piece is especially appropriate.

If you would like to participate – and I so hope you will! – just please let me know as soon as possible and I will send you all of the details and the “how to‘s”!

I am looking forward to hearing back from each of you.

Warmest regards,
Betsy
