THE
WESTERN RESERVE CHORALE (WRC) is in its twenty-first
season as a non-profit group of amateur and professional
singers. Our aim is to provide free high-quality
performances of choral music for the enjoyment of
residents of Greater Cleveland. WRC typically presents three
choral concerts each year. As a new venture
this year, the 2nd and 3rd
concerts will each be presented twice, in different
locations, as we seek to widen our audience. We will
also continue our community service though concerts at
local retirement homes, which in recent years have
included Judson Manor, Judson
Park, the McGregor Home, The Renaissance and Hamlet
Village.
