" It is a mistake to regard age as a downhill grade toward dissolution. The reverse is true. As one grows older, one climbs with surprising strides. "

George Sand


Encore Creativity for Older Adults and Washington Conservatory of Music joined forces to bring the ninth area Encore Chorale to Glen Echo Park beginning Sept. 16, 2010. Join the over 500 older adult singers who meet weekly around the MD/DC/VA area to explore their voices and learn challenging and fun choral repertoire under professional conductor Jeanne Kelly. If you have sung sometime in your life, want to return to singing, or have sung your entire life, join the Encore Chorale at Washington Conservatory.

The class is instructive as well as enjoyable. Learn proper breathing techniques and how to improve your speaking and singing voice as Kelly guides singers through weekly rehearsals in three- and four-part singing.

Kelly is the former director of the Levine School of Music Arlington Campus, and was conductor of the Georgetown University Concert Choir, and Music Director of the U.S. Naval Academy Women’s Glee Club. She founded Encore Creativity for Older Adults, a nonprofit organization.

There are currently twelve Encore Chorales in Maryland, Virginia, the District of Columbia, and Ohio.
