Summer Chorus
A program of Side by Side since 2001, Summer Chorus runs for 8-9 weeks every summer. It typically offers shorter works and a mix of music, often including several lighthearted pieces. Selections from past summers have included a West Side Story medley, the Three Minute Messiah, and such delights as "Do you carrot all for me" (My heart, it beets for you).
