A new corporation, the Sacramento Valley Choral Coalition, has been formed with the purpose of promoting choral singing in our community and facilitating communication among choruses throughout the greater Sacramento area. Initially, the Coalition will plan and conduct SacSings! – The Sacramento Choral Festival, which will take place at the Harris Center at Folsom Lake College, June 13-15, 2014. SVCC intends to apply for 501(c)(3) status as a nonprofit corporation, and in the meanwhile is under fiscal sponsorship by the Friends of the Arts Commission.
Directors are as follows: (1) Clark Abrahamson (Sacramento Capitolaires), (2) Diana Babcock (Van Erp, Petersen & Babcock and SVCC Treasurer), (3) April Bean (Oakmont High School), (4) Cynthia Cates (Valley Choral Society), (5) Dick Frantzreb (Sacramento Choral Calendar and SVCC President), (6) Robert M. Johnson (Music Society at Cathedral Square), (7) David Loofbourrow (Grass Valley Male Voice Choir), (8) Morris Schlesinger (Voices of California), (9) Maxine Verma (Sacramento Valley Chorus), and (10) David Williams (Folsom Lake College).
Further information about the Coalition will eventually be in the new website of the Sacramento Choral Festival, www.sacsings.org. You can follow the Sacramento Choral Festival on Twitter, @SacSings. And questions can be directed to SacSings@yahoo.com or 916/781-2900.
