Members of the Verdugo Hills Women’s Chorus (VHWC) (above) will be joining voices from across the state for the California Women’s Chorus Annual Convention and Concert on April 25-27. The convention will culminate in a benefit concert “Women In Song” on Sunday, April 27 at 2 p.m. at the Hotel Burbank in Burbank. The concert will showcase the members of CWC choruses as well as performances by this year’s winners of the CWC vocal music scholarships.

The VHWC began performing in the 1950s as PTA Mothersingers and have been making musical magic at local service clubs, church gatherings and retirement homes in La Crescenta and neighboring communities ever since. Under current

musical director Ki Park, the third maestro in VHWC’s storied history, the chorus remains committed to fostering choral singing among women and is proud to be an original member of the California Women’s Chorus.

The California Women’s Chorus, Inc. is a non-profit organization devoted to the encouragement of choral singing among women throughout the state of California. Under its corporate charter, and currently celebrating its 55th anniversary, the philanthropic purpose of this organization is to raise funds for vocal scholarships that are presented at the annual CWC Convention Concert.

To date, more than $250,000 in awards have been presented to outstanding vocal students.
