"...a great sound...absolutely thrilling to hear..."—Bar Harbor Times
_____________
NOW PREPARING OUR SPRING CONCERT!
The Acadia Choral Society's spring program—featuring works by Jonathan Willcocks, Allister MacGillivray, and John Rutter—will take us on a journey from darkness to light, from places of war and struggle to places of peace and hope.
Choristers, please visit the Singers' Study Guide for information about the next rehearsal (updated March 1).
_____________
The Acadia Choral Society is a community chorus of about sixty members, who come from a wide geographical area that includes Hancock, Penobscot and Waldo Counties in Downeast Maine. Members include teachers, students, Jackson Lab scientists, artists, lawyers, doctors, librarians, stay-at-home moms and dads, and more. Some have been musically trained, while others are learning to read music.
Founded in 1978, the chorus was directed by Shirley Smith from 1984 to 2007. Dr. Jamie Hagedorn is the current music director, assisted by accompanist Julia Morris-Myers.
The ACS performs a holiday concert the first weekend in December and a spring concert the first weekend in May. Performances take place at St. Saviour's Church in Bar Harbor. We rehearse every Tuesday of our concert season at 7:00 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Ellsworth (121 Bucksport Rd.)
