New Chamber Chorale website
Just time for a quick update, before I head off to substitute teach Physics 203 for someone that's out of town.
Several of us from the La Crosse Chamber Chorale sang at Macy's last Saturday. They are helping to sponsor our "Words to Music" project, which is where school kids write poems which get submitted to local composers. Each composer (5 this year) selects a poem and sets it to music. Then the Chamber Chorale performs all of the compositions at our Fall concert. We do this every other year.
In other news, the Chamber Chorale got a new website:
http://www.chamberchorale.org
Suprisingly enough, that domain name hadn't been taken! Feel free to order tickets if you're local or make donations if you're anywhere... the singers aren't paid, but the conductor and general manager both are. The board of directors aren't either, come to think of it. We're a non-profit group, anyway, so your donations & ticket purchases don't line anyone's pocket.
