290 Huntington Ave.
Boston, MA
United States

Join the NEC Chamber Singers at their first concert of the 2023-24 academic year, conducted by Erica J. Washburn, NEC's Director of Choral Activities.  Entitled "Great Music for a Great Space: Wanting Memories", the program features texts that explore myriad emotions elicited when reflecting on past events, including thoughts of days gone by, our beginnings, love lost, love remembered, and the creation of new days and memories to come.

The NEC Chamber Singers is an auditioned ensemble, open to all majors at NEC, which perform challenging works from all style periods, with a particular emphasis on 19th-21st century a cappella works.

This is an in-person event with a private stream available to the NEC community herehttps://necmusic.edu/live.
