Marla says The Singers is where my voice belongs

I am a proud supporter of the Alexandria Singers and of the City of Alexandria as an arts destination.  I first joined the Singers when I moved to the area in 1994, and have had the privilege to serve the organization in many different roles over the 31 years (gulp!  how can that be?) that I have been a member.  There is something special about making music with a group of people -  especially this one.  The whole becomes greater than the sum of its parts, and even though people have come and gone and there are different faces, that magic and sense of community remains.  As does the Singers mission of Artistry, Education and Service and commitment to impacting our community. It is the people that have kept me coming back.  Thank you so much for your consideration in supporting the Alexandria Singers - We are excited to celebrate 51 years of sharing our music, and your support will allow us to do it for many more!

Every week, more than 90 singers walk into rehearsal carrying the full weight of their days. Work, family, responsibility. For two hours, they set it down. They breathe together, listen to one another, and create something none of them could create alone.

That's not just music. That's community.

The Alexandria Singers are more than an auditioned chorus. We are a creative home, a third place in a busy world that is not work, not home, but something rarer: a space where individuals become something greater together. In a region where people are always moving, always achieving, always on to the next thing, we are a place where voices belong.
