CONCERTS & EVENTS
COVID-19 UPDATE
Dear Fans of Bella Voce:
These are challenging times. Our chief mission and greatest pleasure: SINGING - has been put on hold indefinitely until we figure out how to function and live with this pandemic or until they find an effective vaccine against the virus. Our goal is to keep you safe!
Out of an abundance of caution we announce that we are canceling our May 2020 spring concerts and December 2020 holiday concerts. We hold out great hope that we can return to singing for you in the spring of 2021. In the meantime, we will continue to monitor the situation and make decisions on future concerts accordingly. Please check back here often for further updates.
Oh, and PLEASE continue to support your local arts organizations. We're all in this together!

In May 2020 our Bella Bel Canto concerts will highlight the dramatic and delightful contribution opera has provided women’s choruses by composers ranging from Mozart to Gilbert and Sullivan! Bella Voce is delighted to welcome Professional Soprano and Vocal Pedagogue Sarah Cullins as our Guest Artist for these concerts. Sarah will be featured on lovely lyric soprano ‘Bel Canto’ repertoire in the first half and in the second half we’ll highlight her rich connection to the music of Latin America, which she deepened during her years living in Colombia, including a variety of spicy and sultry Spanish selections!
Rain date: Sunday, October 10, 10:00am - 4:00 pm
Reasonable COVID precautions will be taken: Sale is completely outdoors — plenty of ventilation. Proper social distancing and masks required.
