Fall season rehearsals

The Washington International Chorus rehearses every Tuesday evening from 7-9 pm at the United Church at 20th and G Sts NW in The George Washington University area.  We are a non-auditioned chorus so do not be afraid to join us for a rehearsal and see if you would like to join.  Prior singing experience and the ability to read music are a plus or, if you have always wanted to sing then come and try it.  We are rehearsing holiday songs from various cultures and traditions for the December concert.  We will also begin working on opera choruses for a spring concert.  All ages, over 16, welcome. 

Two metro stops are convenient to our rehearsal site since street parking is limited.  The Foggy Bottom metro and the Farragut West stops are within easy walking distance. A GW guest parking garage is not far (22nd and I Sts) but they charge a fee.
