“Coming to New York City is the culmination of over ten years of Encore’s expansion across the country. With multiple programs in Baltimore; Washington, DC; Chicago and Denver, to name a few, we look forward to bringing a new choral experience to older adults in New York.” – Jeanne Kelly, Encore’s Founder and Artistic Director
Encore was born of the Creativity and Aging Study at George Washington University, under Dr. Gene Cohen, that measured mental, physical, and social benefits for older adults who had the opportunity to sing under a professional conductor.
Encore serves over 1,800 singers ages 55+ in eight states and the District of Columbia…and now, NYC!
