(July 27, 2022) — Like to sing but can’t read music? No problem! The Middlesex Hospital Vocal Chords has many members just like you who love to sing. No auditions necessary! Just a love of music, singing and a commitment to rehearse every Tuesday night. New members in voice parts alto, tenor and bass are especially welcome! Proof of Covid 19 vaccination required for all members. We provide a supportive environment in which to explore your voice and love of singing. Make new friends and lift your spirits. It is a proven fact that singing with a group is a natural anti-depressant; it lowers stress levels and anxiety, improves mental alertness and increases social fulfillment. Don’t miss out on a truly life-changing experience! Rehearsals start Tuesday August 30, 2022 at 6:45 p.m. at St. Francis Church, Msgr. Fox Parish Hall, 10 Elm St. in Middletown, in preparation for our winter concert on Sunday December 11, 2022, at Portland High School at 2:00 p.m.
Proceeds from our concerts are given back to the community in the form of scholarships
bestowed upon high school seniors from Middlesex County who are pursuing a career in
nursing or music. To date, a total of $78,000 has been awarded, thanks to our Patron Drive and many loyal followers. The Vocal Chords also give of their time to sing at various community activities such as the annual Hospice Service and the Veterans Day Dinner at Portland High School.
