Bennington Children's Chorus to Perform
The Bennington Children's Chorus will hold its annual Spring Concert at The Bennington Museum on Sunday, June 1 at 2:00 p.m. with a light reception immediately following. The concert is free and open to the public. Come out and experience the joy of hearing children of the Tri-State area raise their voices in song!

The Bennington Children's Chorus is an independent, non-profit, community-based organization for children of unchanged voices. The Chorus was founded in 1987 for the purpose of giving children of the Tri-State area the opportunity to study and perform the finest choral literature written for the treble voice. Its repertoire includes classical selections, folk music and newly-composed works.

Directed by Kerry Ryer-Parke, adjunct faculty at Williams College, the Chorus is committed to providing quality music instruction which develops each singer's vocal ability. The environment is one in which each singer can experience the joy of singing, develop confidence and become a vital part of a musical team.
