NCC to start new season

On January 10, North Coast Chorale (NCC) will start its new season of fun, camaraderie, a little work and, of course, lots of singing. This term, the Chorale will meet each Thursday at 6:45 p.m. in the Performing Arts Center, 588 Franklin in Astoria.

NCC will begin by preparing for its Spring Concert entitled, “Songs of the Earth,” to be presented on May 17 and 19. This concert’s featured piece is by Hal Eastburn with Native American instruments, narration and music from indigenous peoples.

The Chorale is looking for singers in all four parts with all levels of talent, including students with strong voices in grades 7-12, senior citizens and those in between. Clatsop Community College students can earn credits while singing as a member of NCC. MUS 134-E1. No auditions – just come and see what fun it is to learn new choral skills and perform for the community. Anyone interested is encouraged to take part. For more information, contact their Director, Denise at 503-338-8403 or NCC President, Cheryl at 503-791-5681.

North Coast Chorale receives support from Oregon Arts Commission, a state agency funded by the State of Oregon.
