| Notes | The Monroe Swiss Singers [are] a non-professional, non-profit choral group specializing in Swiss folklore music, with the mission of nurturing and perpetuating the heritage and traditions brought by immigrant Swiss to Green County [Wisconsin]. Established in 1963, following a long line of Swiss choral groups in Monroe dating back to the late 1800s, many of the singers [on this recording] are native Swiss or of Swiss descent.--CD booklet. Recorded 7 November 2009 at St. Victor Catholic Church, Monroe, Wisconsin. Cover letter of donation is from Deborah Krauss Smith, director. |
