If singing is your passion the Encore Chorale Camp at Chautauqua begins on Monday, Aug. 29 and continues through Friday, Sept. 2. In its fourth year, this program brings together adults, age 55 and over, to spend five days at Chautauqua. They will rehearse daily with conductors Jeanne Kelly, founder of Encore Creativity and Dr. Barry Talley, retired Director of Musical Activities at the United States Naval Academy. This year’s repertoire will include spirituals, oratorio selections, Americana, and the best of Gilbert and Sullivan.  Daily movement and dance classes, through the Encore Dance/Movement Institute with Dance Exchange, will also be offered. In addition, the Encore Theatre Institute with Stagebridge Theatre will take students into the world of storytelling and the thrill of performance.

Evenings will be filled with professional recitals and relaxation. A public grand finale Encore Chorale concert will be performed on September 2nd in Elizabeth S. Lenna Hall.
