Audiences at the weekend performances by the Island Community Chorus were treated to selections from two Verdi operas, a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta and eight musicals.
On Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon at the Old Whaling Church, the Island Community Chorus will be joined by younger voices as the Martha’s Vineyard Children’s Chorus makes its holiday debut.
With spring sunshine slanting through the windows of the Old Whaling Church in Edgartown Sunday afternoon, director Peter Boak stepped to the podium with a reassuring smile.
Like the rest of our Island community, the Island Community Chorus, with over 100 members, was getting restless and frustrated. Weekly snowstorms forced the cancellation of our Monday night rehearsals.
