So, I just returned from a lovely week's vacation in sunny Brigantine, NJ, and am now suffering through the intense heatwave in Philadelphia, but for some reason all I can think of is the holidays! And no, it has nothing to do with "Christmas in July," for those of you who might be wondering!
I recently received my letter from the Philly POPS inviting me back to sing with the 2010 POPS Festival Chorus, a chorus that performs with Peter Nero and The Philly POPS at the Kimmel Center for its ten Holiday POPS concerts each December. This will be my fourth year singing with the POPS Festival Chorus, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to participate in this Philadelphia holiday season tradition for another year!
This year, the ten concerts will fall between December 4, and December 22, 2010. And as in previous years, we are looking to recruit some new voices to join the chorus, and always, we especially need more male voices. That said, if you are interested in singing with the Festival Chorus, and have a good voice and decent music reading skills, please contact the POPS office (215-875-7699) to schedule an audition! The next set of auditions will be held on Tuesday, July 20, from 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm in the Merriam Building. For more details about audition, rehearsal, and show times, click here!
Participating in the Festival Chorus is certainly a big time commitment, but if you are able to swing it, I can promise you it will be well worth your time! It is an honor to be able to say I have performed with the legendary Peter Nero in Verizon Hall at the Kimmel Center, and I hope that of my many talented family members and friends, at least a few of you will be able to participate with me this year!
Cheers!
Tina
