Spend Wednesdays in song and in good company with the Encore Chorale. Now in its eighth year, the Encore Chorale begins a new session of weekly rehearsals under the direction of conductor Jeanne Kelly.
The classes are designed for singers 55 and older and are instructive and enjoyable. Learn proper breathing techniques and how to improve your voice through tone production as the conductors guide participants through rehearsals in four-part singing.
This will culminate into a free public performance.
Kelly, former conductor of the Georgetown University Concert Choir and music director of the U.S. Naval Academy Women’s Glee Club, is the founder and president of Encore Creativity Arts for Older Adults.
15 sessions plus performance
No audition required; participants should be 55 or older.
