The program will be performed at 7 p.m. April 21 and 2 p.m. April 22 at the Resort at Squaw Creek in Olympic Valley.

The chorus was organized in the spring of 2002. It’s cosponsored by the Osher Life Long Learning Institute of Sierra College and charitable donations from the community.
The chorus is made up of some 50 members from the Truckee and North Lake Tahoe areas. The mission of the organization is to promote choral music and arts in the schools and community and to provide a performance outlet for the members.
