The Burlington High School Music Boosters Association is proud to host its sixth annual "Gala Benefit Concert and Silent Auction" on Sunday afternoon, November 3rd, 2013, at 2 PM in the Fogelberg Performing Arts Center at Burlington High School.

This year's theme for the Gala will be "Favorite Songs From Around the World", including Italian, Irish, American, and French songs.  We are proud to feature the New England Tenors and Burlington High School's very own Chorus and Select Chorus. In addition, we will be showcasing Burlington High's brand new Steinway & Son's grand piano. 

Burlington High School Performing Arts Director John Middleton-Cox leads the trio of the New England Tenors. He is joined by tenors Damien Corcoran and Jeffery Hartman. They are accompanied by pianist Wayne Ward, violinist Peter Stickel and BHS grad and current Berkley student Patrick Hanafin.

Intermission will offer a time to bid on silent auction items while enjoying tasty refreshments graciously provided by Shaws, Stop and Shop (of Bedford and Woburn), Market Basket, Delicious Desserts, Lacascia’s, Burlington Marriott and Bedford Doubletree. Among the items to bid on include a weekend night stay and breakfast, one at the Hilton Garden Inn and one at the Doubletree Hilton in Bedford, restaurant gift cards from the Capital Grill, Seasons 52 as well as Not Your Average Joe’s. Other items include health club memberships, massages, Nashoba Valley lift tickets, and a host of other surprises!
