HISTORY: The CCC originated as the Randolph Singers Children's Chorale, under the direction of Marta Borgstrom. Ms. Borgstrom re-established a tradition of children's chorales trained by directors of the Randolph Singers, including Marjorie Drysdale,  and performing with them in concerts.  When Ms. Borgstrom taught at Randolph Elementary, her classes often formed choruses which performed with the Singers.
