Otterbein WomenÕs Chorale (Winter 2008)

Welcome (back) to the WomenÕs Chorale! This quarter we will be working partly on the Requiem by Gabriel Fauré (1845 – 1924) and partly on repertoire for the spring quarter.

Please arrive at rehearsals promptly, with a pencil and a bottle of water, and ready to sing.

Our accompanist is the excellent Ms Sue Dowdy.
