UPCOMING EVENTS
Midsummer Night Sings
Sonoma County's popular summer choral series, now in its seventh season! Join us in a unique experience of singing great choral works, led by four of the Bay Area’s finest choral conductors.
Each session features a noted conductor working through one or more great works with a group of local singers ranging in size from 60-120 voices.
No advance registration is necessary for the Midsummer Night Sings sessions. Just come on down to have a great time singing! If you have a score for the evening's work, bring it along. Otherwise, you can borrow one of ours. Fees are collected at the door. Snacks and beverages for breaktime are provided.
Don't miss the opportunity to acquaint yourself--or reacquaint yourself-- with these great works.
