The Smithsonian Encore Chorale is part of the Smithsonian Resident Associates Program . Since it began with 22 singers in the fall of 2007, it has quadrupled in size to over 100 enthusiastic individuals who are really into the "singing thing." Their enthusiasm and energy really come through in their terrific sound. The 2011-2012 year included exciting performances at the Smithsonian Museum of the American Indian, National Harbor, and the Kennedy Center Millennium Stage, as well as several other locations around the metropolitan DC area. Encore looks forward to even more growth in September!
Encore Chorale at the Smithsonian InstitutionIf you have sung sometime in your life, want to return to singing, or have never sung outside the shower, join other music enthusiasts for a weekly rehearsal of seasonal and holiday music with professional conductor Jeanne Kelly. The class, designed for adults 55 years and above is instructive as well as enjoyable. Learn proper breathing techniques and how to improve your voice through tone production as Kelly guides participants through weekly rehearsals in three- and four-part singing. The season will conclude with a performance with other Encore Chorales at high profile locations around the DC area. Be a part of a true harmonic convergence—if you can talk, you can sing!
