Chorus History

In 1974, Ed Covey, an avid babershop fan, decided to form a women's choral group in the Connecticut River Valley area.  The following year, under the direction of Rene` Frechette, the group took the name "The Good Time Music Company."  By 1977, it had grown in number and prestige eventually changing the name to VALLEY SHORE ACAPPELLA.

We have had several directors over the years, some for many years. Our current director is Susan Campagnano, an enthusiastic, talented music educator with skills that will take our musical knowledge and performance quality to a new level.

The members of our ensemble enjoy a truly exceptional camaraderie which is always reflected in our spirited performances.  We perform for many community organizations and corporate events, senior centers and in charitable fund raising affairs. We've also performed at many prestigious venues including the Wadsworth Atheneum and the Connecticut Governor's mansion. We enjoy singing just about anywhere and everywhere!
