About Us
Boston Harmony World Music Chorus
We are welcoming new singers of all voice parts/ages
to join us for the 2011-2012 season. Boston Harmony, a world music community choir in its sixth year, led by the dynamic team of Patty Cuyler & Larry Gordon—the co-directors of Vermont-based Village Harmony—is open to singers of all singing experience.
Stretch your musical boundaries and learn an exciting and challenging
world music repertoire, to include dance-songs from South Africa, folk polyphony from the Balkans, Caucasus Georgia and Corsica, and traditional American shape-note songs, folk arrangements, and gospel quartet songs.
Fluent music-reading and prior singing experience, while great assets, are NOT necessary to participate. We don’t require auditions. If you want to sing with us,
then WE want YOU.
Register & pay your tuition for Boston Harmony online NOW.

Go STRAIGHT at this intersection aprox 4 1/2 miles.
At the first and only stop sign (just past the Concord Museum), the road ends at an angle. Turn/bear left and continue into Concord Center - aprox. 1/2 mile.

The next building is the Christian Science Church and the Maonic Temple is next to the church.
