Our Fall 2020 Season
A Message from our Director
“2020 presented us with a unique challenge: how do we keep our beloved chorus going despite not being able to sing together? While many organizations cancelled their seasons, Souhegan Valley Chorus decided to try something unique and different: rehearsing all Fall on Zoom, and coming together in a professional recording studio to create a Christmas album! We were so happy to be able to sing together every Tuesday night, and record in small groups in the studio. We had a lot of fun, and are grateful we were able to keep singing. After all, we don’t sing because we’re happy; we’re happy because we sing!”

Singing in a choir could be ‘the new exercise’
“Exercise is one of the few activities in life that is indisputably good for us,” writes Daniel H. Pink in his new book, ‘When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing.‘ “Choral singing might be the new exercise.”
“Choral singing calms the heart and boosts endorphin levels. It improves lung function. It increases pain thresholds and reduces the need for pain medication,” Pink claims, citing research published in Evolution and Human Behavior. It also seems to improve your outlook, boosting mood and self-esteem while alleviating feelings of stress and depression.
