Mystic Chorale’s 35th Anniversary Concert

Led by Mike Pfitzer

10 Tuesdays, March 25 – May 27, 7:30-9:30 p.m.
First Parish of Arlington

Revel with Mystic Chorale this spring in celebration of 35 years of music-making!  Welcoming all who love to sing since 1989, Mystic has wowed audiences with music from a wide range of musical eras, genres, cultures, and traditions in concerts that have featured passionate singers and guest artists, top notch bands and enthusiastic audiences.

This season Mystic singers will revisit many of the gems sung over the decades. Led by music director Mike Pfitzer, the program will feature Mystic Chorale Founder, Nick Page, leading a sing-along, Jonathan Singleton and Donnell Patterson leading select songs, and several fabulous guest artists from the past.

The repertoire will include old favorites, including A Promise I Will Keep; Before My Ashes Flow to the Sea; Senzeni Na/We Shall Overcome; Swing Low; The Storm is Passing Over; Swimming to the Other Side; Miriam’s Song, and One Voice. Also included will be Celebration – an anthem for this season’s salute to Mystic’s history!

Ten weeks of rehearsals begin Tuesday, March 25, 7:30-9:30 p.m. at First Parish Church, 630 Massachusetts  Avenue in Arlington. The chorus will perform a rousing concert at Cary Hall in Lexington on Saturday, May 31.

Whether you’re a Mystic veteran, have taken a break, are brand new to the group or even new to community singing in general – join today for a powerful, emotionally connected, and celebratory Mystic Chorale Spring!
