COMMUNITY CHOIR REHEARSALS BEGIN

Fredonia Community Choir, formerly Trinity Masterworks, has begun its rehearsal for its spring concert.

This is a call for all who love to sing in four part harmony. Fredonia Community Choir is happy to announce the start of another rehearsal series that will lead to a concert of the amazing work, Requiem for the Living by Dan Forest.

Rehearsals began Sunday in our new rehearsal and performance space at the Main Street Studios located 50 W. Main St., Fredonia from 6 to 8 p.m. Park in public parking behind building or enter from alley off West Main St between Artic Bites and Spot and a Spell coffee house.. It is not too late to join the group. Rehearsals will continue Sunday evenings until concert week March 12.

Fredonia Community Choir welcomes anyone who wants to sing again without fear of rejection or not feeling they are good enough. The goal is to make music together with the emphasis on personal and group growth in the process and less on pressure to produce a perfect product.

Maybe you sang in elementary, middle or high school choirs or with the group before the pandemic. If so we welcome first timers or returnees. The music sung by this group are slightly longer works — 30 to 40 minutes — by living composers with some orchestral accompaniment.

Please stop by Sunday. Director Phillip McMullen and all in attendance will be happy to have you sing with the group. There are no dues or auditions, just purchase the score for $15 and attend as many of the nine rehearsals as you can.

REVITALIZE DUNKIRK TO MEET

JAN. 25

Revitalize Dunkirk’s quarterly membership meeting will be at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 25 in the Fredonia Technology Incubator, 214 Central Ave., Dunkirk. Guest speaker will be Aimee Rogers, president of Imagine Forestville. Rogers’ presentation will focus on Imagine Forestville’s role in the successful collaboration with town of Hanover officials and other community groups that culminated this past summer in the opening of a forest hiking trail on town land.

Revitalize Dunkirk’s Board of Directors and its ad hoc committee on Battery Point are especially interested in gaining insight that may help us advance our advocacy with Dunkirk city officials and employees for creation of a nature area with hiking trails on the city-owned land known as Battery Point.

There will be time for questions with Rogers regarding its trail project and any of its other initiatives of interest and relevance to audience members such as historic preservation and zoning law changes.

Starting at $3.50/week.
