Choral singing is an important part of community life, and a major part of our rich cultural life here in the Green Mountain State. About a quarter of all American households have at least one person singing in a choir鈥攊n Vermont that number is much larger, with every region having at least one volunteer chorus, and school programs strong in vocal music.
On Sunday mornings at 11 and Tuesday evenings at 8, Vermont singer explores the range of great classical choral works, from madrigals to masses. On each program, a Vermont chorus is featured. You will hear Bella Voce, Social Band, the Handel Society, Counterpoint, the Oriana Singers and many other community groups. Vermont composers of choral music鈥擡rik Nielsen, Gwyneth Walker, Don Jamison and others鈥攁re also highlighted.
Listen to the Choral Hour on 开云体育 Classical for information on the many choral activities, auditions and concerts from our many groups in the listening area. If you have questions or suggestions for the show please send us a message.
