A Word from our President

Dear Friends,
With the holidays behind us, it is my hope that 2024 as been good for you and those you love and that everyone stayed well!

As summer is fast approaching, planning for the 2024 Finger Lakes Choral Festival season is in full swing! This summer our concert will take place at Hochstein Performance Hall on Sunday, July 28th, 4 PM concert. The repertoire includes Ariel Ramirez’ Missa Criola: Folk Mass sung in Latin, and Glenn McClure’s St. Francis in the Americas, A Caribbean Mass. Chorus rehearsal dates at Asbury First United Methodist Church are: June 15th (a Saturday – Welcome Back, Sight Reading); June 19th and 26th; July 10th, 17th, and 24th, 7:15-9:30 PM. Concert week dress rehearsal will be Friday, July 26th, time TBA, at Hochstein. Additional rehearsal(s) during concert week may take place. Music will be available at the first rehearsal. Registration forms are now on our website.

We have a most exciting summer planned!! Please watch your email and the website for further details and links to these rehearsals. Singers in all voice parts are invited and are most welcome and needed for this summer chorus! We would be thrilled to have you!!

Please be assured that our first and foremost concern for all participants in Finger Lakes Choral Festival continues to be protecting their health and well being. Singers may wear masks if they wish, and masks are no longer required. Should the situation change, we will revise this accordingly. Please watch your email plus the Finger Lakes website for any updates.

In the meantime, I hope that you enjoy everything wonderful and positive for these coming weeks and months until we can be together to share our gifts and our love for choral music! Please take very good care, and always be very careful wherever you walk!

Peace and Joy,
Sandy Moncrief
