Barbershop Chorus Concert Benefits Beverly Bootstraps

The Northshoremen Barbershop Chorus will hold its second annual concert to benefit Beverly Bootstraps at 7:30 p.m., on Wednesday, November 4, at the Italian Community Center on 300 Rantoul Street in Beverly. The price of admission is either a donation of non-­perishable food, or a check made out to Beverly Bootstraps in whatever amount the donor wishes to give.

“Part of our mission as members of the Barbershop Harmony Society is to do charitable work and give back to the community,” said Northshormen Music Director Gene Anderson. “It is our pleasure to work with Beverly Bootstraps, especially when there are so many people and families in need. We are very happy to help support their efforts.”

“Last year was wonderful, and we are thrilled to again be the recipient of this year’s event. Community support is how we were founded and continues to provide the resources needed to help those in need in Beverly and Manchester,” said Heather Johnston, Director of Donor Relations.

In addition to the chorus, which won the “Most Improved Award” at the recent Northeastern District Fall Contest/Convention in Burlington, VT, one of its quartets, the 2015 Patriot Division Seniors Quartet Champion ‘Essex County 4,’ will perform. The evening will feature many memorable songs, among them “Ain’t Misbehavin,” “All the Way,” and songs from
the doo­-wop era.

Light refreshments will be available, and everyone is invited to come and share in an evening of music and giving.
