Need an Uplifting Musical Program for Your Group or Facility?

New Beginnings is a contemporary women’s choral group with keyboard and electronic accompaniment. In its 15th season, the group of about 40 performers features soloists, narrators, and 3-part harmony. Our upbeat musical sound includes popular songs, as well as fresh arrangements of favorite standards and Broadway show tunes. Christmas shows feature carols - old and new - and other traditional music suited to the season.

Each year we have a completely new program which lasts about an hour, but may be changed to fit your time requirements. We perform a holiday program from mid-November through December, and a secular show from March through May. On occasion, June performances may also be scheduled.  

Mary Jane RobertsonOur director is the artistic Mary Jane Robertson, assisted by Sally Lynn. The concerts are accompanied by our talented pianists Robin Kramer or Rachel Peterson.
