We Are Hypatia II
June 10, 2017 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm
A note from the Artistic Director
In our pilot season of 2015-2016, Hypatia performed a program of music drawn from the various backgrounds of all the members of the choir in a concert titled, “We are Hypatia.” The concert was so well-loved, we received many requests to repeat the program for those in attendance to enjoy it again and bring their friends! We are pleased to present tonight “WE ARE HYPATIA II” showcasing the members of our 2016-2017 season. Enjoy this musical journey with us to the various places around the world that make up our collective history.
