2010 NEACCA Festival Choruses Announced
The groups performing in this year’s festival are Blackstone Valley Community Chorus under the direction of Diane Pollard, Appletree Arts Community Chorus under the direction of Donna Blanchard, and the Greater Milford Community Chorus under the direction of Don Thatcher.
The directors have picked out their combined NEACCA chorus music and your chorus will be holding your own rehearsals to learn this music prior to 6/19. Last year there was a little apprehension about learning the music on our own and putting it together on festival day, but what a thrill it was to hear the combined chorus, sing that first song… “River Song”!
