If Music Be the Food of Love
The Master Singers are not just noteworthy for their music – we can put together great receptions, too! Sadly, we had to put the receptions on hold during the past few years, but it’s time to welcome them back – and the best way to do that is with a concert celebrating food, love, and the love of food. As always, February brings out our members as soloists. So pull up a chair and join us for this musical feast!

Considering Matthew Shepard
In October of 1998, Matthew Shepard, a young gay man, was abducted, beaten, and left tied to a fence in the hills overlooking Laramie, Wyoming. His death became an international call for tolerance and inclusion. Craig Hella Johnson’s fantastic new work is bound to be considered one of the great pieces of the 21st century; please join us to share this compelling message of love and acceptance.
