Description
The Fog City Singers are currently on a trajectory for a breakthrough: we are aspiring to new heights by honing our chorus’ singing, performance, and even social experiences. In this concert, you will be among the first to witness our contest set that we are taking with us to the Barbershop Harmony Society International Chorus Contest in Denver, CO next month.
You’ll also be treated to several more Fog City selections, as well as performances from our distinguished chapter quartets: Creative Differences, Western Addition, and the Summertimers Harmony Band (6/22) will all be competing in the quartet contest in Denver, and Artistic License (6/26) will be joining us for a swan set performance.
Our 6/22 Redwood City show will feature a few newly-formed Fog City breakout ensembles looking to make a breakthrough of their own. And our 6/26 San Francisco show is a fully joint endeavor with our partner chorus, Fog City Harmonia, who are themselves preparing for Denver as well.
It’s a big pre-International celebration! We hope to see you there.
