We invite you to add more great music to your life by joining
us to sing this summer.
The Mount Desert Summer Chorale has some 70 members. Under the direction of
Arizona State University music professor
David Schildkret, the Chorale
prepares a major work during 6 weeks or so each summer on Mount Desert Island, Maine.
Performances take place the first weekend in August, with guest
soloists and professional instrumentalists.
No audition is required. It's a limited 6-week commitment, from late June to early August.
Because of the short time frame, consistent rehearsal attendance is necessary (see our
rehearsal calendar).
What better thing to accomplish this summer than to learn some new pieces, improve
your vocal technique, get to know some fellow singers, strive for performance excellence before an
appreciative audience, and share a chuckle or two along the way? We invite you to sign up now!
Please print the registration form and mail to:
Mount Desert Summer Chorale, P.O. Box 887, Mount Desert, ME 04660
