About FLCF

You are to be commended for this marvelous concert opportunity. The administrative organization was excellent and you made the singers feel very welcome. It was a marvelous experience.
It was thrilling. The diversity of the selections showed me aspects of Beethoven I've never encountered before, and the execution was excellent.
Through the preparation and performance of memorable "destination" choral events, FLCF fosters musical and cultural learning, creates social connections, promotes recreation, and serves its community through charitable donations. Concerts are free to the public and enjoy a large and devoted audience. Vocalists who do not ordinarily perform together during the normal concert calendar are drawn to FLCF. Singers acquire choral experience and maintain their vocal and musical skills in a relaxed setting with FLCF and may subsequently audition for one of the area’s numerous choruses.
