Hi Esther ! Thank you for your comment. I tried twice to post the event under the heading Post a New Event. Twice it took too long to type the information, and it was cancellled. Tickets are sold at the door of the church;there is no ticket website. I belong to the Central Maryland Chorale and have been a member for over 25 years. There is a website.It is www.Central Maryland Chorale.com,so you can read all about our next concert on May 17,2013 at The Lutheran Church of St. Andrew,15300 New Hampshire Avenue, Silver Spring, MD,20905 on May 17,2013 at 7:30 p.m. We will be singing "The Creation" by Joseph Haydn with guest solists.
