Harmony Celebration Chorus, a group of 25 singers, presented a highly entertaining show to a capacity-filled audience. The HeartStrings, Harmonics & Just 4 quartets subsets of the group sang a wide range of songs from eras including renditions of Michael Buble’s Crazy Life, I’m Got the World on a String by Frank Sinatra, The Shoop Shoop song a song that made a comeback by Cher, Mr. Sandman, When I’m 64 (the Beatles), Let There Be Peace on Earth, and At Last (covered by Christina Aguilera and Beyonce), and many others tunes.The group also sang Happy Birthday to one of the Mansion’s Fleetwood Camera Museum curators, George Helmke, who celebrated his 97th birthday.
