The Music Department invites you to join the Metro Chorale – a new choir directed by Nevilla E. Ottley.  The choir will perform classical anthems (by black, white and contemporary composers ), as well as spirituals and some early gospel.

Metro Chorale will sing for both services every other month with two Tuesday rehearsals (7:30 – 8:50 p.m.) and an 8:00 p.m. Friday night warm up and sound check before each appointment.  Teens, adults, and seniors are welcome to join.  If interested, call or text Mrs. Ottley at 301-467-1021 by January 31.

We've listed the entire performance schedule for the year so you can plan accordingly!

We're looking forward to another Black History Month celebration and hope you'll join us each week.
