Dozens of current and former members of the Elm City Girls’ Choir will raise their voices in song on Sunday, June 24, 2018 at 4:00pm at St. John’s Episcopal Church in Bridgeport. The program will include some of ECGC’s “greatest hits” from 1993-2018 with spontaneous requests from both performers and audience members, and a rollicking sing-a-long of everybody’s favorite songs from recent years as well as the “good old days”! Saecula Women’s Choir will make a guest appearance in this nostalgic performance.
Founded in 1993, The Elm City Girls’ Choir (ECGC) is the premier ensemble of the United Girls’ Choir network. ECGC provides opportunities for talented young musicians from all around Connecticut to develop their skills as singers, conductors, and leaders in a rigorous, conservatory-like environment. The group has performed with major orchestras at venues such as Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center, and on concert tours in China, Italy, England, Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.
Saecula Women’s Choir provides opportunities for alumnae of the Elm City Girls’ Choir and other experienced adult singers from throughout Connecticut to make music together in a challenging yet relaxed atmosphere. The group is dedicated to cultivating leadership, building community, and raising funds to support music education programs.
