Recent scientific studies show that singing in one's golden years can have a
salutary effect on emotional, physical, and mental vitality. The mission of
Bucks County Choral Society's Singing for Seniors workshop and concert
program is to acknowledge this valuable asset, and to promote it to Bucks
County's growing population of 55+ seniors. With a variety of progressive
activities, BCCS, the Choral Society's artistic director Thomas Lloyd, and
workshop leader Dr. Helen Kemp have placed themselves at the forefront of
the movement to keep active music-making alive well into the later years of
life. Says Kemp, "You don't stop singing because you grow old; you grow old
because you stop singing."
