I’m a Bellaire resident and singer with this group. Thanks for the publicity! I’ve been an member since 2005. Not only has it been interesting and challenging, but it has also been the most fun I’ve had in years. I don’t know all the music we’re doing this season yet, but I do know we’re doing a couple of African-style pieces, the theme song from “Glee”, music from shows and movies such as “Hair” and “Shrek”, and a medley of Michael Jackson songs. I’m really looking forward to it.
