Dr. Rachel Carlson and the Six Degree Singers

The Six Degree Singers led by Dr. Rachel Carlson, is Silver Spring’s choir for young professionals, everyday people from a variety of musical and non-musical backgrounds, who wanted to keep the making of music an active part of their lives. Neither professional nor amateur, this group serves as a warm inclusive community yet still have a strong musical discipline. Six Degree Singers has sung at venues throughout the D.C.-metro area, including the Music Center at Strathmore, the Folger Shakespeare Library, the White House, and performances of the National Anthem for the Washington Nationals and Baltimore Orioles. In addition to giving concerts at the likes of the White House
and Folger Shakespeare Library, SDS provides free musical education and public outreach to ensure that music doesn’t fall into a forgotten or harmless hobby.
