Nashoba Valley Chorale
The Nashoba Valley Chorale is an SATB regional chorus, founded in 1976, which rehearses in Littleton and performs in neighboring communities, from Concord to Fitchburg. We prepare two major concerts a year in which we perform serious (but not necessarily solemn) music of many styles and periods under the artistic leadership of conductor Anne Watson Born. Our repertoire includes works from Bach and Beethoven to Brahms, Bruckner and Britten; from Vivaldi to Verdi to Vaughan Williams.
Our concerts are in December/January and April/May, and we also participate in local telethons, and choral festivals.
Upcoming Chorale Events
- Tuesday, August 12, 2008 - Come to the Community Sing Open House at the First Baptist Church of Littleton! We'll be singing under the direction of our wonderful director, Anne Watson-Born, showing pictures from our 2007 Jamestown tour and eating delicious treats (recipies from our own cookbook - Masterpieces from the Kitchen). We'd love to have you join us for a summer evening of camaraderie and singing great music. And by all means, bring a friend, or two or three!
