Thanks to an anonymous donor’s generosity, we have an opportunity to fully fund the Longmont Chorale this season, despite our early closure!

Now through May 31, a donation of any size will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to a total of $2,000.

Our finance committee calculates that we will face a $5,000 loss due to ending the season early because of the pandemic closures.

Special Announcement Regarding our March, April, and May Concerts

Our Spring 2020 Concerts Will Not Be Held at This Time

Dear Longmont Chorale audience members,

Due to new CDC guidelines regarding those in vulnerable age groups and/or having underlying health issues being urged to avoid large public gatherings, we have made the difficult decision to end our season, effective immediately. This includes the Viva Voce concert in April.

Please read the update posted on Thursday, 3/06/2020 on the CDC website here:
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/specific-groups/high-risk-complications.html

As much as we all love singing together and for our audience, we need to follow the recommendation to avoid large gatherings to protect everyone’s health.

Please watch our website, social media, and your email for more information.

We hope you will follow the practices listed by health authorities like the CDC and WHO. Stay well, and we’ll be in touch again soon.

Take care,
Bob Balsman
