I'm reposting this so that the information is right at the top of the page for easy access:

As most of you probably know, our anniversary concerts are a time when the current chorus invites all of you wonderful alumnae to sing with us on a few pieces. We are personally SO excited to meet all of you, and can't wait to be up there on stage performing with the women who have made VWC the group we know and love today!

We are asking interested women to RSVP to us by January 16th, 2010. Please take the time to think about your plans for the weekend of April 9th-11th, and let us know of your planned participation by emailing us the following information:

Candlelight Concerts this Weekend


VWC is very excited to be performing our Annual Candlelight Concerts once again in the UVa. Chapel this weekend. We will be holding two concerts:

Friday, Dec. 4th at 8pm
Sunday, Dec. 6th at 2pm

If you are in Virginia or the DC area this weekend, we would love to see you!

We'll also be holding our next Alumnae Board of Trustees meeting on Sunday, after the concert, in Newcomb Hall Student Activities Center. You are welcome to chat with Claudia Fletcher, our Chairwoman, after the concert, or sit in on our meeting if you are interested in joining in the future. The topic of most of the meeting will be...PLANNING OUR ANNIVERSARY CONCERT! Hope to see you there!


Reunite with past conductors

If you've been wondering what your VWC directors are doing now, you'll have the chance to find out at the Anniversary Concert!

Libby Moore Slade, Jim Dearing, and Donna Plasket are all planning on coming back to work with us in April, which is incredibly exciting! They will be conducting some of their favorite pieces from the VWC archives, and I'm sure they are looking forward to reconnecting with all of you.

There will be plenty of opportunities over the course of the weekend to reminisce with your old directors, be it at our full group rehearsal or one of the various alumnae reunion activities we have in the works. Don't let it pass you by!
