Concerts
The 2019-2020 season of music promises a challenging mix of styles and contexts, with our five choruses singing music from several centuries and cultures. This ranges from our very youngest children singing carols in a small Berkshire hill-town church, to the 90 voice Berkshire Lyric Chorus singing Brahms and Bruckner at Tanglewood’s Ozawa Hall in May with a full orchestra.
