"... a sound worth hearing" - Anne Midgette, The Washington Post
Our 16th season promises to transcend and inspire. We open with our new “Jewel Box Series,” featuring Washington Master Chorale Chamber Singers performing intimate a capella concerts in small, architectural "jewels” of the city. The full Master Chorale returns in December to present Thine Own Sweet Light, an entirely a cappella concert featuring the rich sounds of the 50 voice chorus performing lush, seasonal choral music inspired by the theme of light. We conclude the season with an uplifting culmination of our I Too Sing America Concert Series, featuring contributions from American composers of color to the choral music canon.
