CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The 31st season has started for Charlotte’s premier choral program for children and youth, Charlotte Choir School. Ticket sales begin this week for the Fall Concert, a one night only performance at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church on October 13, 2023.

“Last season being our 30th year was an exciting one and we have not slowed that momentum down. Along with our first concert of the year, this Fall we are excited to be bringing back a past patron favorite, Intermezzo: Wine, Cheese and Chocolate. A virtual happy hour event benefiting the arts,” Executive Director, Davis A. Tapp explains.

First launched in 2021 as a way of raising funds virtually, Intermezzo invites people to gather from the comfort of their own homes for an exclusive and interactive wine, cheese and chocolate seminar put on in partnership with Charlotte purveyors, Assorted Table Wine Shoppe, Orman’s Cheese, & Potts Chocolate. The happy hour event is set to take place on November 5, 2023, right before the holidays.

Rounding out the autumn season, the choral program plans to begin their annual parent-led fundraiser selling holiday greenery on October 2 with orders being open until mid-November. A tradition spanning nearly two decades, Charlotte Choir School partners with a local North Carolina farm to bring fresh wreaths and garland to the homes of many for the holidays.

Intermezzo and Greenery details can be found starting in October at charlottechoirschool.org.

How to buy tickets to the Fall Concert: The Fall Concert will begin at 7:30PM with doors opening at 7:00. Tickets are available to the public beginning Wednesday, September 13 online at charlottechoirschool.org/season.
