Rehearsals are underway for our Spring Pops concert, "Light Refreshment." Selections include some amusing songs about "critters", selections from operas and operettas, jazz favorites, and some Italian popular classics (no mention of the Aerial Tramway, but you'll hear "Funiculi, Funicula!") Mark your calendars for May 18 (Lancaster) and May 19 (Littleton) to be sure you don't miss this fun concert.

White Mountain Voices members are excited about their group outing for a concert by the 2023 Grammy nominated Voces8 ensemble at Fuller Hall, St. Johnsbury Academy on March 4. This British group aims to inspire people through music and share the joy of singing. The group's performances have been called impeccable, meticulous, perfect, and compelling, with praise for their tone, balance, and controlled harmonies. The Arts Desk critics have praised the group as "the Rolls-Royce of British a capella ensembles." We are looking forward to listening, enjoying, and learning! ( photo credit Andy Staples, Voces8.com)

Building on their strong performance at the winter concert, White Mountain Youth Voices has resumed rehearsals for the spring season. This season 11 children are learning about singing, following the conductor, and musical notation basics. Freya Wheeler, the small angel in last season's Snow Angel production, had this to say about participating in WMYV: " I'm like a river, and music keeps me flowing. White Mountain Youth Voices has strengthened my singing even more." Our organization is very proud of these young singers and thrilled to be bringing the joy of choral music to the next generation.

The combined White Mountain Voices and White Mountain Youth Voices presented their "Snow Angel" winter concert to packed houses on December 16 and 17, 2023. The Youth Voices presented 4 numbers including a rousing version of Pat-a Pan accompanied with flute and tambourine. The adult choir showcased Sarah Quartel's "Snow Angel" and other seasonal music. The final number of the concert was the moving call for peace," Ose Shalom," featuring powerful vocals from Lucas Weiss. The audience joined the chorus for some seasonal songs at the close of the concert.
