Twelfth Milton Choral Festival 

March 12-14, 2010 The Yale Club of Boston and the Yale Alumni Chorus will sponsor the twelfth weekend festival of choral singing, again under the direction of Jeffrey Douma, director of the Yale Glee Club, at Milton Academy, in Milton, MA, on the weekend of March 12-14, 2010.

Jeff's program may includes works which will be performed as part of the Yale Alumni Chorus's 2010 concert tour to Cuba, as well as traditional spirituals, sacred, and secular works from the compendious Yale Glee club repertoire. Music will be mailed at the end of January. If you receive more than one email exhortation for the 2010 weekend, please be tolerant. I can offer explanations but no excuses.
