Singers are invited for choral classics on Tuesdays in August.
Music on the Hill will host a series of Summer Sings in Wilton on Tuesday evenings in August, beginning Aug. 4th.

Participants may attend one or many sessions.Summer Sings will be held each Tuesday, August 4 through 25, from 7 to 9 p.m., at the Wilton Presbyterian Church, located in the WEPCO church complex at 48 New Canaan Road in Wilton.

- Aug. 11th: Haydn’s Lord Nelson Mass with conductor Carolina Flores;
- Aug. 18: Mozart’s Requiem with conductor David Recca;
- Aug. 25: TBA with Music on the Hill artistic director David H. Connell
Summer Sings are an opportunity to try a new piece of music or to revisit a familiar favorite. All singers are welcome -- members of church and community choirs; high school singers; adults wanting to return to singing or to dip into the choral classics.
