===================================================
Welcome to the home page for the GFMAMMC, one of Cape Cod's premier
singing groups, a mixed chorus
dedicated to "singing from the heart - singing till we part!"
The GFMAMMC was founded in MCMXC by Tom Goux and Tom Aldrich, who were
XLII and XLVI years old respectively at the time.
A detailed
history of the group can be found by clicking
here.
NOTE: this page will shortly be replaced by www.falmouthmenschorus.org.
I will be working
with the new web administrator to relocate the existing files to the
new site.

THE
"WORD"
¶ As of 12/19,
Brittany Haskell
is the new director of the
GFMAMMC, replacing John Yankee who has moved on to other musical
endeavors including
directorship of the Falmouth Chorale and the new Falmouth Community
Orchestra. We wish John all the best (and we're happy that he is
remaining in the Falmouth area to share his music!)
¶ The 2009 season will begin in March instead of January and will
culminate with a concert or concerts on Father's Day weekend in June.
It is hoped
that this change to long-standing chorus procedure will help minimize
the "snowbird syndrome" that results in the loss of a certain number of
singers
from practices every season.
¶ The organizers of the "Afternoon of Music", a yearly event that
benefits the Falmouth Homeless Prevention Fund, have expressed their
gratitude
for the generous donation made by the Chorus to this year's
fundraiser. The total raised by this endeavor - every penny of which
goes to assist those in need -
will be announced early in January.
¶ The Chorus performed at the Falmouth Veteran's Day ceremony in
November and earned warm thanks from Veterans' Affairs officers Jay Hill
and Crystal Flagg. Thanks to Marty Tulloch and Tom Goux for the use of
the sound system!
