This Spring, you can hear us perform many well
known songs sung by Judy Garland. We'll be singing in some familiar venues and we're excited to also be performing in the new
Bankhead Theater in Livermore. Check our Performance Calendar
for complete details.
The
Blackhawk Chorus began in 1991 with 12 women whose dedication to and
fondness for music was exemplary. Word spread of the success of
the group and in the following year, men were invited to participate.
Now the 130-strong chorus performs regularly in the East San Francisco
Bay Area.
The
Blackhawk Chorus represented the state of California in the American
Music Festival in June 2003 in Austria and the Czech Republic, sang at
High Mass in Italy’s St. Peter’s Basilica in July, 2005, and
performed concerts in the United Kingdom (London, Wales and at the
Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland) in August, 2007. The Blackhawk
Chorus will be visiting
China
for a concert tour in 2009.
