The Mollyockett Chorus, based in Norway, was organized in 1996 and is a chapter of Harmony Inc., an international women’s barbershop organization. Under the direction of Simon Smith of Bethel, the chorus, comprising women from all over the Lakes Region, sings popular music, mostly from early- to mid-20th century. This spring it opened the season at the Bear Mountain Music Hall in Waterford. Women who love to sing are welcome at chorus rehearsals, which take place at 6:30 p.m. Tuesdays at First Unitarian Universalist Church, 479 Main St., Norway. For more information, visit the chorus on Facebook or email mollyockettchorus@gmail.com.

Maine-ly Harmony, directed by Kathy Greason, also sings the barbershop style of four-part harmony. Previously, the group has opened the legislative session at the State House in Augusta with the national anthem and participated in the Togus Veterans Administration’s 9/11 commemorative service. The chorus brings music to residents of retirement, veterans’ and nursing homes throughout the state. Women of all ages are welcome to join in rehearsals from 6:30-9 p.m. Wednesdays at the Randolph Methodist Church, 16 Asbury St.
