The Oxford Community Chorus performed a Spring concert at the Oxford Performing Arts Center on April 24. The concert featured a selection of well-known Broadway songs, performed by a 50-voice choir and a 20-piece instrumental ensemble. Directed by Don Gober, the one-hour event included hits from Broadway and film.

The evening's program featured songs from 'Annie Get Your Gun,' 'Mary Poppins,' 'The Phantom of the Opera,' 'Carousel,' and 'The Sound of Music.' Mike Carter, vice president of the Oxford Arts Council, provided narration that offered historical insights into the musical numbers.

The Oxford Community Chorus is managed by the Oxford Arts Council and presents two major concerts each year. After the Spring concert, the chorus will start rehearsals for their Holiday concert on September 3. These rehearsals, held every Tuesday, are open to all interested singers.
