 Recent press: "...those looking for spiritual transport could find it in the life-affirming beauty of John Alexander’s Pacific Chorale. They were glorious, managing tricky choruses... with breathtaking agility and poise." [read more] "For many years now, the Pacific Chorale has been operating at peak form. The virtues one expects from choral performance – unity, clarity, balance – have been artfully drilled into place by the Chorale's leader John Alexander. Add to that stylistic flexibility and insightful programming. It's a remarkable ensemble, capable of doing so much." [read more] "The Pacific Chorale is a terrific group. John Alexander, for 36 years its leader, has turned it into a luxury model – super polished, richly blended, smooth riding. One hardly notices the road when enveloped by its sound. The sound is just there, seemingly exactly as it should be." [read more] "[Alexander] conducted with an incisive hand throughout, pacing with assurance and digging into [the work's] meat. The chorale sang magnificently, richly voiced, polished and secure..." [read more] "...longtime artistic director John Alexander displayed the chorale’s stunning range, its command of colors and dynamics, its textual sensitivity, its vocal power and the potency of its quiet singing.... With the sterling and immaculate collaboration of the Pacific Symphony, the total performance was a model of stylishness." — Daniel Cariaga, Los Angeles Times
