This concert will be professionally recorded, so we respectfully request no children ages 5 and under. Although we love these little ones, we are unable to accommodate small children.
The CAM Chamber Singers are comprised of local vocal music artists that sing professionally throughout the communities of Metro Detroit; members are drawn from the opera choristers and paid choral scholars. The Community Chorus is a choral ensemble open to community members that are passionate about the choral art. The choir enrolls a diverse membership, and they perform varied works. Both ensembles perform choral masterworks and premiere new works by living composers. The combined choirs are under the direction of Dr. Jim Watson, Artistic Director, with piano accompaniment by Hannah Watson. The CAM is served by volunteer executives and board members, including the Artistic Director, Managing Director, and Treasurer.
This concert is supported in part by CAM sponsors. CAM sponsors include Mettle Ops, MSU Credit Union, Musical Resources of Toledo, Oxford Bank, Rochester Conservatory of Music, and the Troy Metro Symphony Orchestra.
