Chamber Ensemble
A group of 26 seasoned, auditioned vocalists who perform an inspiring repertoire of the most challenging choral music from around the world, including time-honored pieces and new music, as well as sacred and secular works. The Ensemble has performed more than 1,250 choral compositions in 100+ concerts.
“The unbelievable blend of the voices, the careful attention to nuances and the variety of music captured me. David Morales is the finest director that I’ve ever sung with.”
Summer Adult Choir
For anyone who wants to sing choral music, this non-auditioned 125-plus voice choir debuted in July 2018, with a concert featuring anthems from the Christian Church. In July 2019, the choir performed African American spirituals and gospel songs. We look forward to resuming this program as soon as it is safe for public health. Up next: Broadway show tunes .
