About the Goodwin House Alexandria Chorale
The singers at GHA were the very first older adult chorale under the direction of Jeanne Kelly. They started in 2000, and the average age of the members was 80. These terrific singers were the reason Kelly was asked to participate in the Creativity and Aging Study under Dr. Gene Cohen. This group has remained tried and true, setting an example for the other chorales to follow. Many of the great singers from 2000 are still happily singing. Now that is dedication!
