Red Rose City Chorus to perform at Cross Keys in Fine Arts Concert Series event November 29

“This ain’t your grandpa’s barbershop!”

That’s what the more than 40 women who make up the Red Rose City Chorus say about their award-winning barbershop harmony, which will be showcased in a free, public concert on Saturday, Nov. 29, at 7 p.m. in Nicarry Meetinghouse at Cross Keys Village – The Brethren Home Community.

The event is part of the 2008 Fine Arts Concert Series at Cross Keys, which receives support from the Brethren Home Auxiliary.

The chorus includes singers from Lancaster, York, Dauphin, Berks, Cumberland and Montgomery counties, and like most barbershop groups, it places friendship and fellowship as priorities alongside performing. Lori Jo Whitehaus, a 30-year member of Sweet Adelines, has directed the chorus since 1994.

The Red Rose City Chorus performance is the next-to-last in the 2008 Fine Arts Concert Series. On Saturday, Dec. 20, the York Symphony Chamber Singers will perform, also at 7 p.m. in Nicarry Meetinghouse.

Cross Keys Village – The Brethren Home Community is located at the intersection of U.S. 30 and PA 94 (Cross Keys), less than two miles east of New Oxford’s town circle. Nicarry Meetinghouse is best accessed via the Route 30 entrance, which is at the northwest corner of the campus. Directional signage is available at other entrances. Ample free parking is available./p>
