Conductor’s Note
Welcome to Divas!
We hope you’re ready for a night of our favorite hits from across the pond. Although we’ll be singing a few songs from the historical British Invasion, we’ll be celebrating British musicians throughout pop history, from the Beatles all the way to contemporary artists like Mika. If you’re inspired to be on stage with us, I encourage you to join us for our winter session, Divas, which starts in January. For tonight, though, enjoy an evening of Britpop!
