Singing for Health: Coro Solera Sings Cinco de Mayo

The Community Music Center’s Coro Solera of the Mission Neighborhood Center, a Spanish language choir, are much lauded veterans of festivals and celebrations throughout the Bay Area, performing songs from Mexico, Central America, South America, and Spain. The JCCSF is delighted to welcome the group back to our atrium once again to celebrate Cinco de Mayo.  

Coro Solera is part of the fifteen member Neighborhood Choir Program for Older Adults and Adults with Disabilities, which is a partnership between the Community Music Center and Neighborhood and Senior Centers all around San Francisco. The program is primarily supported by the San Francisco Department of Disability and Aging Services (DAS), and has been used as a model for similar programs throughout the country.

With a newly expanded campus in the Mission and also in the Richmond neighborhood of San Francisco, CMC  students come from every neighborhood to learn and make beautiful music!
