Alumni Choir Concert 2009

Established in 2006, the Anderson Junior College Alumni Choir was formed by a group of choristers that has recently graduated from AJC. We felt that two years of singing, performing and competing was simply not enough to measure our passion for music.

So here we are - our first public concert as an alumni choir!

Spread the word and bring your friends along for a night of classics, contemporaries and pop a capella. We look forward to seeing you at YMS on the 26th of June!

You can email ajalumnichoir@gmail.com for tickets.
