Encore Creativity for Older Adults, the nation’s largest choral organization for adults over 55, is pleased to welcome community members of all ages to its winter concert series this December. The Encore Chorales of Ashburn, Fairfax, Reston, and Sentimental Journey Singers will join together to ring in joy for the winter season at Heritage Fellowship Church in Reston on December 16. Tickets are required; all performances are free with a pay-what-you-wish option. For a detailed schedule and for ticketing information, visit the list of performances on Encore Creativity’s website at https://encorecreativity.org/tickets. Encore’s Chorale ensembles will sing holiday favorites both classic and modern, from Victor C. Johnson’s Stars Shall I Find to Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus from Messiah (ed. Larry Pugh). Additionally, Sentimental Journey Singers, Encore’s choir for those with early- to mid-stage cognitive change and their care partners, will perform familiar songs in a warm group setting with songs such as Greg Gilpin’s The Holiday Tango and their signature piece Sentimental Journey (arr. Hawley Ades). Tickets are required and can be reserved on Encore Creativity’s website or by calling 301-261-5747. Admission to all concerts is free, but there is a pay-what-you-wish option for those who wish to give back and support the nonprofit’s guiding mission of creating meaningful arts experiences supporting lifelong learning, wellness, and fun for all older adults. The concert season will culminate with a performance at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. as a part of the Millennium Stage series. The performance will bring Encore singers from across the country together for a concert to celebrate a year of wellness, creativity, and fun for older adults. In 2022, Encore’s annual Kennedy Center performance was held to great acclaim with over 400 Encore singers from across the nation in attendance. The performance was reflective of Encore Creativity’s 16-year history, with singers of all ensembles led by distinguished conductors to build community through singing.
