MASTER SINGERS Holiday Concerts (7 possible)

Note from Sue Peppers: My husband sang with the Sacramento Master Singers for 7 years. They are an amazing group - a community choir, all volunteer, who practice diligently to bring this community some of the most amazing choral music you will ever hear. I urge you to pick one of the dates and take your friends and family to this event. If you want to meet with other WHALES there - please arrange it personally (through the email here) with those who RSVP. There are lots of lunch and dinner places in the mid-town area - making this a neat way to make the time to get to know others in our wonderful world of WHALES.
