New Dominion Chorale

Given the stature of the chorale, many people are surprised to learn of its no-audition policy; anyone can sing with the chorus. Even so, critics have praised the ensemble for its vocal balance and the polish of its performances. In part, the high level of musicianship comes from an unspoken compact among members: "Learn your notes. And if you don't read music that well, practice at home until you know the piece cold." Members also take their responsibility to the community seriously. That's why we volunteer our time to sing in area retirement and nursing residences and at community events. With NDC still going st rong after 35 years, Maestro Beveridge recently announced his retirement from the podium. Now serving as Artistic Director Emeritus, he will be mentoring our new Artistic Director, Dr. Casey Cook , as he leads New Dominion Chorale into our next chapter.
