Hats off to Susan McMane, who will be taking her Young Women’s Choral Projects charges through a sampling of music, including Galuppi’s marvelous Dixit Dominus.
Clerestory, the men’s choral group that is partly a spin-off from Chanticleer, is back in action on the weekend, with a program they’re calling “Bacchanalia”, a celebration of spring and music about springtime appetites.
