Summer Chorus Director: Rafael Ornes
The Stanford Summer Chorus is a non-auditioned community chorus sponsored by the Stanford Department of Music. Membership is open to everyone; singers typically come from all corners of the Bay Area, and from all age groups and ability levels.
This year, the Summer Chorus will be presenting “Summer of Love,” a program of music which focuses on the many facets of love. The concert will feature two major works: The World Beloved – A Bluegrass Mass by Carol Barnett and Wedding Cantata by Daniel Pinkham, along with works by other American composers. The summer concert will take place on Friday, August 9th at 8 p.m. in Bing Concert Hall.
The Stanford Summer Chorus rehearses on Tuesday nights, 7:15–9:45 p.m., starting on June 25th in Campbell Recital Hall at Braun Music Center on the Stanford campus, and the dress rehearsal will take place on August 8th, 7-10 p.m. in Bing Concert Hall. | Directions to Campbell Recital Hall here.
There is a participation fee of $40 (waived for Stanford students and faculty) plus the cost of the score packet. We recommend you arrive between 6:30-6:45 p.m. to register and pay your fee at the first rehearsal on June 25th.
