Kearsarge Chorale
Community Chorus Based in New London, NH
"Singing with the Chorale has given me a creative outlet during the early years of motherhood, allowing me to pause the rhythms of life with little kids to do something that is just for fun, and to engage with the community in a meaningful way." — Hannah Hernick

Members (and prospective members), this page is for you! Rehearsals are held on Monday nights at 7:00 p.m. at the first Baptist Church in New London. The Chorale performs two concerts most years, one in May and one in November. Our Artistic Director, Alex Ager, provides both challenge and guidance for achievement and musical artistry. Our concerts are frequently enhanced by professional instrumental ensembles and vocal soloists. Our new collaborative pianist is Isa Rex.
Please see the Fall 2024 singer letter (gold button, just below) for more information. Contact us if you have questions.
Returning Members
Welcome back! Please print and fill out a registration form on the Singer Letter (Gold button, above), even if you already completed one in the past. If you don't have a printer, extra copies will be available at the annual meeting in August and at the first rehearsal of each semester. Students are not required to pay dues.

New Members
New members are welcome to join us at the beginning of each new session. Kearsarge Chorale is a non-auditioned, community choir, under the artistic direction of Alex Ager. Please check out our past performance programs and our Youtube videos to learn about the exciting and broad range of music we sing. While it is helpful to be able to read music, it isn't essential if you have experience with successfully learning choral literature by ear.
Please print the singer letter/registration form and bring it with you to the first rehearsal. If you don't have a printer, extra copies will be available. Please arrive at 6:30 pm on the evening of the first rehearsal to register, if you have not already done so at the annual meeting. If you would like someone to contact you prior to then, please let us know. We look forward to meeting you!
