Warm up those vocal cords: the Plant City Community Chorale's ninth anniversary season is set to begin next month.
The first rehearsal of the season will be held at 7 p.m. Monday, Aug. 15, at Plant City's First Presbyterian Church, 404 W. Reynolds St. The chorale will be led by Artistic Director Claudia Liliana Becerra Bolan᷈o.
Each season, the organization presents four concerts. The fall season will begin with music in several languages, including German, Spanish, Latin and Italian. The chorale will showcase a variety of composers, including Johannes Brahms, Eric Whitacre, Carlos Gustavino, David Childs and Wolfgang Mozart.
The group still has some of its founding members, but is always looking for fresh faces. The group is in search of singers of all ages, especially bass singers, with one practice required weekly. To date, the group includes residents from Plant City, Polk County, Brandon and Tampa.
The cost to perform in all four concerts is $30 per person. Dues must be paid before the chorale's first show in October.
