Members of the Hickory Tree Chorus concluded a busy holiday singing season with a December 21 performance in the lobby of Summit's Overlook Hospital. The women were invited to perform there after entertaining employees at the new Overlook Community Health location on Springfield Avenue while caroling through downtown Summit December 11.
The chorus, its quartets and small ensembles have spread holiday cheer this season by caroling in downtown Summit, Chester, Westfield and Perth Amboy and entertained audiences at Livingston Barnes and Noble, Boonton's Victoria Mews assisted living facility, and the Greater Westfield Area Soroptimist organization.
Wednesday rehearsals resume January 2011 and the chorus invites interested women singers to its annual "Sing A Cappella Series" of free vocal lessons January 12, 19 & 26, 7:30 pm at 570 Central Ave., New Providence. Contact: members@hickorytreechorus.org
