Women’s chorus welcomes new members

BRATTLEBORO — The fall session of the Brattleboro Women's Chorus will begin on Sept. 5 and 6 with open rehearsals for women or girls over age 10 who would like to try out the chorus without obligation.

Founder/director Becky Graber traveled with 18 chorus members to the Sister Singers Festival in Grand Rapids, Michigan, in June, where they not only performed but also heard lots of wonderful music by other women's choruses. Some of these songs will be included in the fall repertoire.

Rehearsals are Wednesday evenings, beginning Sept. 5, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., at All Souls Church in West Brattleboro or Thursday mornings, starting Sept. 6, from 10 a.m. to noon at the Brattleboro Music Center, near Living Memorial Park.

Singers may attend either or both. The chorus will be preparing for concerts on Nov. 17 and 18, and performing in these is always optional.

There are student and family-pair rates as well as financial aid, and all registration information is available at BrattleboroWomensChorus.org or by calling 802-254-8994.
