Piney Hills Harmony Chorus, a chapter of Sweet Adelines International
located in Ruston, is hosting guest nights mixed with sessions aimed at
helping singers improve both their voices and their vocal performances.
The chorus is welcoming singers of all skill levels to join them for two
nights of settings designed to enhance their choral abilities. The
sessions will be held during the chorus’s regular rehearsals at 6:30
p.m. June 15 and June 22 in the fellowship hall of the Presbyterian
Church of Ruston, located at 212 N. Bonner.
Piney Hills Harmony currently draws its members from Caldwell, Lincoln,
Ouachita and Union parishes. Visitors from other parishes are welcome as
well.
During the sessions, participants will receive instruction from a
certified director as well as other experienced singers, with guidance
on techniques and skills that are essential to becoming a successful
vocalist. Musical arrangements will be four-part harmony, requiring both
high and low voices. The ability to read music is not required as vocal
learning aids will be provided.
A community performance that the visitors can participate in is also in
the planning stages.
Piney Hills Harmony is one of approximately 500 chapters of Sweet
Adelines International, which was founded in 1945 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, by
a small group of women who loved to sing and whose dream has spread
across the globe.
