Young Composers Competition

Pacific Chorale is pleased to announce John Orfe and Michael Rickelton as the co-winners of our 2011-2012 Young Composers Competition! Orfe's Fire! and Rickelton’s Pentecost were premiered by the John Alexander Singers on their American Voices concert on March 11, 2012.

Due to programming considerations, Pacific Chorale's Young Composers Competition will not be held during the 2013-2014 season. Stay tuned for details about our next competition taking place in 2014-2015!

Contact Katherine Yang, Director of Education & Community Programs, for more information about Pacific Chorale's Young Composers Competition.

Youth Honor Choir

The Pacific Chorale Honor Choir, consisting of students from Southern California high school choirs, annually joins forces with the Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra (PSYO).

Performing in a world-class venue with the cream of the crop was an incredibly positive experience for my student. It required maturity and discipline to spend his free time rehearsing and performing outside of the classroom setting. The experience showed him what his group was capable of mastering in just a few short weeks. It also served to reward music students who consistently proved their reliability, musical ability and determination to succeed at the high school level. —Honor Choir Parent

There's not a chance for them to perform in this type of professional venue with an orchestra group like the PSYO. It simply doesn't happen. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them...lots of hard work, but an invaluable experience! —Teacher of a PC Honor Choir student

Class Descriptions

Festival Preparation

For additional preparation opportunities to help sharpen musicianship skills for the Festival Chorus rehearsals and performance, Pacific Chorale is offering a 2-day series of musicianship classes. These classes are optional to those who are participating in our 2013 Choral Festival this August.

These classes will include such topics such as: Reviewing basic fundamentals of music through Festival repertoire as well as providing tools to improve reading and practicing skills prior to the rehearsals and performance on August 9-11, 2013.

The total cost of the classes is $20 based on $10 per day for two 2-hour sessions. Note: We can only confirm the class if we meet the minimum enrollment of 20 singers per class. Space is limited.

Monday, August 5, 2013 from 7:15-9:15 p.m.
Wednesday, August 7, 2013 from 7:15-9:15 p.m.
