The Bel Canto Singers, under the direction of Allen Redford, rehearse for their concert at 6 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 30, at the Monroe Arts Center. This is the re-scheduled concert that was snowed-out in April.

MONROE — The Bel Canto Singers will feature the Great American Songbook music of Irving Berlin at their spring concert at 6 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 30 at the Monroe Arts Center. 

This is their rescheduled spring concert that was snowed out in mid-April.

The singers chose an unusual concert time, 6 p.m., for the convenience of the audience. The concert is late enough for folks to enjoy being outdoors on an autumn afternoon and allows time to watch the noon Green Bay Packer game.
