NEW SINGERS & YOUTH MENTORSHIP PROGRAM
We'll be welcoming (or welcoming back!) several new singers this term. I'm excited to see our Xara group dynamic develop and deepen over the term and to extend the XaraLove to all those who are new. In addition to these new/returning folks, we will be welcoming several singers as part of our Youth Mentoring Program. These young singers are in high school and have outstanding choral experience. They will have separate sessions just for them some weeks but we will fully integrate them into the ensemble this term. If you are an experienced member of Xara, please extend extra warmth and support to them!
