Rehearsals

Rehearsals begin on the second Wednesday in September and continue until the end of June. We welcome new singers and meet at 7:00 p.m.  Beginning with the first rehearsal of the season, singers prepare for the Christmas holiday season, the annual Spring Concert, and the Saengerfest.  Singers also entertain residents in nursing homes.

Annual Saengerfest

The Arion singers take part in the annual competition of the Connecticut Saengerbund.  Choruses compete in two divisions and three categories: Men, Ladies, and Mixed.  The Arion has done very well over the years as the many trophies and plaques can attest.  The event is held on the last Sunday in June.
