Whidbey Community chorus looks to Christmas


September 4, 2012 · 4:01 PM

The Whidbey Community Chorus, under the direction of Chet Hansen, invites singers to join the chorus in preparing for its annual Christmas concerts.

The concerts will feature a variety of religious and secular music from many composers and arrangers, which will allow singers and audiences a chance to visit Christmas in many locations. Included are familiar tunes that will remind audiences of singing around the Christmas tree at home.

Registration and the first practice will be at 5 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 16, at the First United Methodist Church, located at 1050 SE Ireland St. in Oak Harbor. Weekly practices are on Sunday evenings at the First United Methodist Church, and concerts are scheduled for early December.

Individual dues for the season are $30 for adults and $15 for high school and college students, payable at registration. Women are required to purchase a chorus blouse for $37 or $42 depending on size; financial aid is available for this purchase.
