I do not know if anything like this is being performed in The Villages or anywhere nearby. My wife and I have attended/participated in several of these events in Philadelphia, at the Academy of Music and the Kimmel Center. What it is is the principals/soloists practice for months and then on the night of the performance the audience brings along their sheet music and sings the chorus parts while the principals sing theirs. There are usually several guest conductors, and of course an orchestra. I realize that the organization of such a project is way out of my league, but I would be interested in talking to anyone who might be interested in putting together such an evening of beautiful music.
