Columbia Pike Community Chorus

 

          

Come and Sing!

 The Columbia Pike Community Chorus will begin rehearsals on March 5 for The World Sings Peace, a program of songs from many parts of the globe.  All are welcome, no vocal training is required.  Rehearsals are Mondays; the performance is Sunday, May 20, 2007 at 4:00 pm.

 The CPCC was established in early fall 2004 with the hope of strengthening community along the Columbia Pike corridor.  Open to all, with or without vocal training, they welcome new and returning singers from all over the Northern Virginia area. Rehearsals and performances are held at Trinity Church, which sponsors the not-for-profit group.  All programs are free (free-will donations are gratefully accepted), child care is provided, and a reception follows each performance.  To date, the CPCC has presented five concerts:

 The World Sings Christmas, (Dec ’04) holiday music of the world.

 The World Sings Hope (May ’05) continued the world music series with South African freedom songs, Civil War songs, songs of redemption from the Holocaust, and traditional spirituals expressing hope for healing.
