Local Vocal Chord Bowl #8 is Saturday, April 2 at 7pm at ARHS

The Local Vocal Chord Bowl will be held this Saturday! This is an event you do not want to miss! The performances will truly amaze you - these a Capella groups are phenomenal!

Last year the event raised $6000! Three thousand dollars went to ARHS - to help the music department purchase a new upright piano!  The other $3000 went to Northampton High School for funding the purchase of electronic keyboards and headphones for a class.

The performance will feature nine acapella groups, including The Chorale and The Hurricane Singers from ARHS, two groups from UMass, and one group from Amherst College, as well as three adult groups.  It should be a great deal of FUN!!
