The concert will be followed by a reception.
About San Francisco Choral Artists
SFCA has brought over 230 world premieres to Bay Area audiences in eclectic programs and stunning performances which offer new works alongside music of the last 600 years. They have released four recordings, sung at national conferences, and twice earned the Chorus America / ASCAP Award for Adventurous Programming.
Under the Roger Nixon Living Music Initiative, SFCA provides expansive support for new works by living composers through five programs for composers in all stages of their careers; these programs are actively increasing the repertoire for chamber choir. With SFCA's newest program, SFCA+1, the ensemble fosters yet more innovative repertoire in programs featuring an instrumental partner (last season, Mads Tolling). SFCA has also collaborated with Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra, The Alexander String Quartet, Veretski Pass, Composers Inc., and The Whole Noyse.
