Dear Philo Singers, 

Our Board meeting on Sunday night will be very special.  Yasmin Khan, a Fundraising and Development Consultant, will chat with us about our chorus and lead us in some development training.

ALL PHILO SINGERS are invited to join the board members*.  You can think of your attendance for this special presentation as an investment in our chorale's future and our place in our community.  

BUT, please rsvp to Janine Beale.  You might need to bring a folding chair.  🙂

Cheers, 
Gayle

Our main themes: 2026 marks the 250th anniversary of America’s independence – and Philomusica will mark the occasion in two unique concerts for residents of our historically important city.  While we support and applaud the arts organizations that will bring out their American flags and bunting, we will offer something different.

25 September, 2025 Message from Gayle Dear Philo Singers: One of my personal goals this season is to get myself to more choral concerts, for my own personal pleasure. to support my friends and family, and to help support choral arts in general in the Philadelphia area. So, it is with a bit of personal privilege that I share this with you.   Choral Arts was founded years ago by one of my teachers and several of our Philo singers, friends, colleagues, and soloists sing with this group.   The attachment gives some info AND a discount code. Maybe I'll see you there!  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1apQtgZ91e9SOFBXSbBKvindW5LVehZYk/edit?usp=drive_link&ouid=102387573291399489048&rtpof=true&sd=true
