The 50-member Laurel Lake Encore Chorale will
present its annual “Sounds of the Season” Holiday Concert at 7 p.m.
Monday, Dec. 20 in the Community Room of Laurel Lake Retirement Community, 200
Laurel Lake Drive in Hudson. The Chorale will perform
music in a wide variety of musical styles, from a medley of tradition
angel carols to contemplative
Native American songs to the jazzy "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let
It Snow!" Audience members are
invited to join the performers for light refreshments following the
concert, which is free and open to the public. For more information,

Chorale
under the direction of Donna Anderson rehearses weekly and performs
several concerts each year. The Chorale was the first national affiliate
of Encore Creativity for Older Adults (www.encorecreativity.org),
established in 2007 to provide an excellent artistic environment for
older adults 55 and over, regardless of experience or ability, who seek
performance opportunities under a professional artist. Today, Encore
choral and dance programs are offered at multiple locations in the
Washington D.C./Baltimore area, including a chorale at the Smithsonian
Institution. Encore’s combined chorales (500 singers) have performed
concerts at The Kennedy Center, the Smithsonian’s American Art Museum,
and the White House Conference on Aging. Each year, Encore conducts
summer "sleepaway" choral camps for older adults at the famed
Chautauqua Institution, New York, and at St. Mary’s College of
Maryland. Encore also hosts Singing at Sea cruises. Laurel Lake Retirement
Community
offers a remarkable lifestyle choice for adults who wish to continue
leading active lives filled with travel, fitness, volunteer, work,
cultural and lifelong learning pursuits. Laurel Lake is a member of
Catholic Healthcare Partners. To learn more about this not-for-profit
