SummerSings Series

 

SummerSings

A recent SummerSings Series held in the air-conditioned comfort of St. Paul Evangelical Lutheran Church, Old Saybrook

In 1987, Cappella Cantorum started the SummerSings Series. Now co-sponsored with Con Brio Choral Society, these sessions provide singers with the opportunity to enjoy choral works without the pressure of preparing for performance.

Most sessions focus on a standard choral masterwork, while some venture into other genres such as spirituals, Broadway, the Great American Songbook, and others.

SummerSings offers the experience of working with professional conductors and soloists in a relaxed atmosphere. Just come and sing! All are welcome; membership in Cappella Cantorum or Con Brio Choral Society is not required to participate. No advance registration necessary.

SummerSings are typically held in local area churches during the months of June through August, with a schedule and details published in advance on the Cappella and ConBrio websites. A nominal fee is charged for each session.  Singers are encouraged to bring their own scores if they have them, or scores will be available on loan for the evening.

Details for the next SummerSings should be available by late May. Until then, below is a summary of our 2023 series to give you a sense of what to expect. We hope you’ll join us for SummerSings 2024!
