“This chorus has exceeded our expectations. It’s hard to believe this is the first year. It’s been a wonderful experience working with Mr. McGillicuddy and Ms. Robertson who are wonderful leaders and conductors. They bring fun, passion, and excitement to each rehearsal and performance, and are continuously instilling the love of music in our children!
