The Chestnut Street Singers, Philadelphia’s cooperative chorus, performed my a cappella arrangement of My Romance by Rogers & Hart in a March 5th, 2020 live appearance on WRTI 90.1 Radio, in preparation for their season program “Always Singing.”
Nathan Lofton, a member of the ensemble, found this old arrangement of mine (from 1998) in a box of music he inherited from the late choral conductor Lorna Cooke deVaron, former director of the NEC Camerata, for whom I wrote the arrangement. The piece was performed on March 6 at the Presbyterian Church of Chestnut Hill and on March 8 at St. Mark’s Church in Philadelphia.
