Conductor’s Note
Welcome to Divas!
March is Women’s History Month, so what better time to have a concert celebrating music’s most iconic divas? From classic icons like Whitney Houston to newer artists such as Chappell Roan, tonight we’re paying tribute to female singers who’ve put out some of our most beloved hits. As a women-led organization, we take great joy in honoring their contributions to the pop music canon while putting on a fun show. I hope you’ll get to hear some of your favorite divas tonight, and maybe discover some new ones you didn’t know before. As always, we hope you’ll join us at our next concerts, Yacht Rock on May 30 and 31, or on stage during a future Pop Choir session. Enjoy the show!
