We believe that music can positively impact and enrich lives. Our performances reflect this belief in Their use of such seasonal Themes as ‘freedom’ and ‘healing’ and ‘our moTher earth;’ and in presentation of mostly new music in a way that is accessible. Our educational programs reflect this belief by training emerging professionals, planting seeds within young people for a lifetime of music involvement, and growing The skills of our own members. Our commitment to new choral music reflects this belief even beyond our substantial performance commitment through Project Encore™ and our Featured Composer Program. Substantially more than a singing group, SCH is unique in many respects that reflects both a breadth and a depth that bespeaks The full meaning of a ‘schola’ (‘school’).
