Dear Friends,

Spring is here! Soon our gardens will be bursting with color as spring flowers are in bloom and our earth wakes up from a cold, snowy winter.  Hoping you and your loved ones have enjoyed these months and will spend a beautiful Spring!

2025 registrations are coming in! Thank you to all who have registered thus far! Summer of 2025 will be very exciting!  Our concert will take place at Hochstein Performance Hall on Sunday, July 27th, at 4 PM, and the repertoire includes Karl Jenkins’ “The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace”, in its 25th anniversary season!  Thomas Warfield and the the Mount Hope World Singers will be with us as will Ines Draskovic on the piano!   

Chorus rehearsals will be held at Asbury First United Methodist Church, 1040 East Avenue in Rochester, beginning on Wednesday, June 4th, at 7:15 PM.  Additional rehearsals during concert week will take place.  Music will be available at the first rehearsal.  Registration forms are found on our website.  Please watch your email and the website for further details and links to rehearsal dates and information.  If you have not already registered, please know that singers in all voice parts are invited and most welcome and needed!  We will be thrilled to have you!!  

As always, please be assured that our first and foremost concern for all participants in Finger Lakes Choral Festival continues to be protecting their health and well being.  Although not required, masks may be worn.  Should the situation change, we will revise this accordingly. 

In the meantime, it is my hope that you enjoy the best life has to offer during these coming weeks and months until we can be together in June to share our gifts and our love for choral music!  Please take very good care, and always be very careful wherever you walk!

Peace and Joy,

Sandy Moncrief
President, Finger Lakes Choral Festival
