Join us for an inspiring week of choral singing! The Choral Festival explores masterworks of the choral repertory, primarily through intense rehearsals and a culminating performance, augmented by discussions and practice of score preparation, study, collaboration, and performance. Choral musicians convene for a week of community, growth, and artistry, experiencing the unique culture and atmosphere that has characterized Westminster Choir College for 100 years, emphasizing listening, ensemble building, vocal production, choral techniques, point of view, excellence of performance, and thoughtfulness. Lectures and discussions will augment the immersive environment, including a look at new repertoire, and a sing-in of additional works (a big hit last year!).
Concert Program (subject to change):
Leonard Bernstein’s Chichester Psalms (with organ, harp, and percussion) and other works by American composers
No audition is required – just bring your passion for singing and choral experience. (Participants must be able to read music and are expected to prepare the music in advance.)
