Conductor’s Note

Welcome to Heartbreakers!

Valentine’s Day has come and gone, and now, a month later, we’re wrestling with heartbreak in all its different forms. From the raucous anger of Pat Benatar to the wistfulness of Queen, we’re going to take you on a journey about the demise of love tonight.  

Amidst all of this, we’re also celebrating the debut of our new Treble Choir tonight! Thanks to your support, we’ve grown tremendously and have the Treble Choir and our original Mixed Choir gracing the stage tonight. If after the show you feel like Pop Choir might be the place for you, I invite you to join us for our spring session, True Colors. It’s going to be a blast, and I know you’ll be excited about the music we’ll be singing. For now, enjoy tonight’s concert!
