Great Year Posted on May 8, 2015August 18, 2015 From Dr. Whitmire: Dear Singers- What an excellent job you did at our May 1 concert. Each of our three pieces was so wonderful in its own way. I will be earth was transcendent and spiritual just as I had hoped. The Settling Years was joyous, exuberant and very interesting, and the women raised the roof on Still I rise. Specials thanks to Joy and Kaylee who really brought it. It was a very special evening. This has been a great season and a great year. From the Black History Month Concert in February to the Leavitt Requiem in April and the Women’s Concert in May—so much wide-ranging music, all performed with distinction. Not to mention the fabulous Mozart concert last October and Vaughan Williams’ Five Mystical Songs in December. Your commitment and hard work have yielded such fabulous music-making. You have made me very proud. Please don’t miss The Annual Chorus Picnic Tomorrow Saturday May 9 2-6 pm at the home of Fred and Judy Wulff 6551 Columbia Pike, Annandale Next Fall we will be singing music of J.S. Bach (Ein Feste Burg) and Handel’s Messiah. How good can it get. I hope every single one of you will be with me again. Tell your friends who a good singers about our upcoming season and they will want to join. Have a wonderful summer.
