“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.

We feel so fortunate to be part of CCC and this wonderful community!!!” - Family of a Singer
