Sierra High Notes

Welcome

by Eric Kao, Music Director

As Musical Director of the Sierra High Notes, I graciously welcome you to our website supported with memories of past performances and announcements of future rehearsals and concerts. This community choir is open to all singing levels and ages with the warm invitation to attend any of our rehearsals and become acquainted with us. This group sings a range of popular music from the 1960’s to the 2000’s, genres from country to patriotic to Broadway, and plentiful Holiday songs to cheer. Each individual singer voluntarily comes into rehearsal with the simple end goals to learn exciting choral music and to have a fun night. We encompass our repertoire to two concerts a year, one in December and one in July, with many outreach gigs serving the veterans, the seniors, and the non-profits. I sincerely hope you reach out to us either by email, through social media, or visiting one of our rehearsals to receive more information as we continue to flourish as the recognized choir for sharing the gift of song.

There’s Still Time to Join

Hi Friends,

While rehearsals for our spring season are underway, there may still be time to join our group.  Truly, you can join at any time, however we won’t let you perform if you aren’t up to a certain level (that’s our Music Director’s call so don’t ask me to elaborate!)  Remember that we are a community chorus so the only real obligations are to pay the seasonal dues and participate. Dues are $75.00 for the spring season and they help offset administrative costs. Hopefully everyone will help out at fundraising time to help keep the dues lower. If you are interested, you can stop by our rehearsal location on Wednesdays at 7pm. Be sure to check the calendar for the correct location! Or contact us through the website.

Hey everyone, we are having a Digital Donut fundraiser with Krispy Kreme Donuts and it is really easy. If you live in the Reno/Sparks area, the Krispy Kreme Donut shop is near the corner of Pyramid HWY and Los Altos Parkway. Address is 75 Los Altos Parkway.

This is for GLAZED DONUTS only. By the dozen only. For every dozen sold for $15, we will receive $7.50. That is a 50% donation. 

The fundraiser will continue until May 1st. 

Why do we have to fundraise? We are a non-profit community choir. Our concerts are free. Our outreach events are free. We can provide these events, because YOU support us in our endeavor to “SHARE THE GIFT OF SONG” to our community. We use our fundraising monies to pay for sheet music, concert venues, our practice site at Faith Lutheran Church, our Music Director, Guest Accompanist and other local musicians like a violinist or a guitarist.

If you are a choir member and received an invite on Jan. 31st, accept this invite.  It activates your own personal URL code to share with friends and family.

We Need Sponsors and Partners!

Let’s face it, nonprofit groups require money to grow. The usual way is to apply for grants, but unless you have a good grant-writer, your chances of getting even a small amount of funding is minimal.

As we continue to crawl out from the shadow of the pandemic, our next best option is to partner with local businesses and community groups. Through our website and social media outlets, we can advertise for you while you help cover our costs and needs of operation. It is a simple arrangement with the potential to help both parties.

If you are interested or would like to discuss this further, please contact us.
