The PGC Ensemble (EN) is comprised of 16 to 20 singers from the Concert
Choir who audition for the opportunity to sing in a smaller, select
ensemble. These singers are available for “gigs” at holiday
time, for weddings, and for other community and cultural events that
have space constraints making a smaller number of girls preferable to
the 65-voice Concert Choir. Precise tuning, ability to blend, and
dedication to rehearsals and performances are a must for these
members. The PGC Ensemble has sung for the Present Day Club, for the
YWCA “grad” group, for Merrill Lynch holiday parties, and even
for the wedding of one of our former PGC members! They perform a
widely varied repertoire, such as show tunes, pop tunes, folk songs,
spirituals and world music. The group is directed and accompanied by
Janet A. Westrick, Artistic Director and Concert Choir Director.
Time commitment for the PGC Ensemble:
-
2-hour weekly rehearsals on Sundays (2:00 pm to 4:00 pm) at Princeton
Day School
-
additional performances as scheduled
-
winter and spring concert
