HICKORY TREE CHORUS SHOW TICKETS ON SALE

Hickory Tree Chorus, the 2007 Champions of the Greater New York Region of Sweet Adelines International, will present “Dance With Me” an exciting show of toe-tapping popular songs performed in four-part acappella harmony, and featuring guest men’s quartet, “Our Town.”

The chorus takes the stage for two lively performances on Saturday, November 17, at West Morris Mendham High School, 65 East Main Street, Mendham, NJ at 3pm and 7:30 pm. Advanced tickets are available by calling 973-539-7904 or by e-mailing tickets@hickorytreechorus.org. All seats are reserved and tickets are priced $20 for adults; $18 for seniors aged 62 and older; $10 for youths aged 12 and under. A 20% discount is available for Jersey Arts cardholders. All tickets cost an additional $2 at the door.

Guest quartet, Our Town, promises dynamic barbershop harmony from its international medalist members, including lead Scott Brannon, director emeritus of the Big Apple Chorus, from the Barbershop Harmony Society.

Hickory Tree Chorus has performed recently at community events like the Relay for Life in New Providence, but “Dance With Me” is their first big public show since winning first place this past April in regional competition held in Philadelphia. The win qualifies the chorus to compete in the Sweet Adelines’ international contest November 2008 in Honolulu, Hawaii. The chorus boasts some 65 voices on stage, with members coming from over 40 communities in the northern New Jersey and New York area.

Hickory Tree Chorus is a chapter of Sweet Adelines International, a worldwide organization of women singers committed to advancing the musical art form of barbershop harmony through education and performances. This non-profit, independent music education association is one of the world’s largest singing organizations for women.

Rehearsals are held and guests welcomed Wednesdays, 7:30 pm, at the Suburban Music Center, 570 Central Avenue, New Providence. For information visit hickorytreechorus.org or e-mail info@hickorytreechorus.org
