Virginia Glee Club from UVa on tour next weekDate: March 7, 2013 by Frank Albinder  Views: 435 Location: Virginia, USA Choir type: College and University Choirs Voicing: Men
Greetings, colleagues,
I'll be taking the Virginia Glee Club, the University of Virginia's 142-year-old men's chorus, on our annual spring break tour starting this weekend. We'll be traveling from Massachusetts to Illinois, so if you live near any of our concerts, come join us for an evening of men's choral music. Our tour program (see below), performed without intermission, will last about an hour. It would be great to see some ChoralNet friends along the way!
Best,
Frank
