Choral Reading of Haydn Lord Nelson Mass & Brahms Nänie, Princeton Society of Musical Amateurs

Sunday April 23, 2023
4:00 PM

Sunday, Sunday, April 23, 2023 - 4:00 pm reading

Conductor: Nicole Aldrich

Location: Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Princeton, Rt 206 at Cherry Hill Road, Princeton NJ

Choral singers welcome. No auditions. Vocal scores provided. $10 admission for singers (or annual membership). Free for students and non-singing guests. Members of the community gathered together for the common and joyful enterprise of making music, to sing through for their own pleasure the great works in choral literature, with chorus, orchestra, and soloists as the works require. The meetings are informal readings in which any musically interested person may join the chorus. There are no separate rehearsals and no auditions. Conductors usually do some preparation with the chorus before the sing-through. This varies from minimal snatches for well-known pieces to a complete review for unfamiliar works.
