A Season of Premieres

Our 2011-2012 Season is entitled
“A Season of Premieres” because each of our concerts will feature world-premieres. This is an indication of the Westmoreland Choral Society’s commitment to advance the art of choral music in every way possible. Of course, the programs are not limited to the premieres; they will also feature audience and Society favorites of every type. Truly a Season to Remember as well as a Season of Premieres!
