Let's Just Sing! Choral Reading of Verdi Requiem, Princeton Society of Musical Amateurs

Sunday, March 9th, 4:00 pm reading

Conductor: Alicia Brozovich

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

The Princeton Society of Musical Amateurs celebrates 90 years of love for choral music, and you're invited to sing. Vocal scores provided. $10 admission for singers (or annual membership).  Free for students and non-singing guests.

Members of the community gather together for the common and joyful enterprise of making music for their own pleasure, singing through the great works in choral literature with chorus, orchestra, and soloists as the works require. There are no separate rehearsals and no auditions. Walk-in singers and listen-only guests are welcome at all sessions. Conductors may do some light preparation with the chorus before the sing-through. Orchestra members participate by invitation, based on the instrumental needs of the work. Light refreshments are available during the break and participants are encouraged to mingle and socialize. For further information email musical.amateurs@gmail.com
