2009–2010 Concert Season, Celebrating Our 36th Year

This year, CCSB will celebrate its 10^th season under the direction of Dr. Harry Moon. Dr. Moon's direction and guidance has been instrumental in the growth of the chorus, both in singers and audiences; and the musical and organizational success of the group.

The Community Chorus at South Berwick has two sessions each year, one in the Winter and one in the Spring. The Winter performance is traditionally holiday oriented, while the theme of the Spring performance varies. Please consider joining us for a performance. The dates, times, and locations are given below.

CCSB's upcoming December concert will be on the "Christmas Garland" tradition, ushering in the holiday season. With the theme Noel, Alleluia the program will span time and musical traditions and be of celebration and praise. The chorus will perform with instrumentalists, including harp and strings. Works by Randall Thompson, Stephen Paulus, Eric Whitacre and others will be featured, as well as carols for the season. Performances will be in Newington (Holy Trinity Lutheran Church) on December 5, and the Wes Kennedy Performing Arts Center at Marshwood High School in South Berwick on December 6, 2009.

The April, 2010 concert, titled "An Hour to Dance", will celebrate the music of dance, and works inspired by the movement and traditions of dance, and include a wide ranging program from J.S. Bach to Benjamin Britten, Gwyneth Walker, and many others. Performances will be in Portsmouth on April 10, and the Wes Kennedy Performing Arts Center at Marshwood High School in South Berwick on April 11, 2010.
