Aquidneck Singers, a multigenerational women’s chorus, is excited to perform two sets entitled “From the lonely sea and the sky” and “Over the Moon,” that include familiar tunes such as Harold Arlen’s “It’s Only a Paper Moon” and “Let the River Run” by Carly Simon featured in the 1988 movie “Working Girl.” Quorus, Newport’s first and only LGBTQIA+ chorus, will present “I wanna be with you everywhere” which will include familiar songs the audience will be sure to love!
