Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4A

“Ensembles during 2019, the foundation sponsored several ensembles, including saecula singers, an intergenerational chamber choir, which continued expanding its educational reach and performed both independently and in collaboration with other musical groups at numerous venues throughout the region. The saecula singers appeared in a family concert at the foote school in new haven, connecticut, and several of its members served as apprentices to scf's artist director in leading a week-long series of educational workshops on folk songs from around the world for all of the school's 450 students in grades k-9. Saecula singers also maintained its annual tradition of performing at first congregational church of cheshire with the alchemy ensemble of gmchorale. As an additional step towards developing a professional-caliber junior conservatory for choral conductors, the foundation also established a new one-on-a-part laboratory-style vocal ensemble called take2 to provide challenging sight-singing and sight- conducting opportunities for advanced musicians of all ages. At each session, members of take2 read through several pieces, rehearse them briefly, and then present them to a small, informal audience. Participants coach one another and take turns conducting. Repertoire includes renaissance polyphony and choral chamber music of all periods.”

SAECULA SINGERS ALSO MAINTAINED ITS ANNUAL TRADITION OF PERFORMING AT FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH OF CHESHIRE WITH THE ALCHEMY ENSEMBLE OF GMCHORALE.
