Pacific Chorale opened our 55th season with a very special program in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall at Segerstrom Center for the Arts, Costa Mesa on October 15, 2022. Beginning with an angelic sounding Duruflé’s Requiem, and closing with a stimulating work of Hagen’s The Notebooks of Leonardo Da Vinci, Artistic Director Robert Istad once again took listeners on an exquisite and uplifting journey with the sounds of Pacific Chorale.

Immediately following Pacific Chorale’s season opening concert was a post-concert reception for our donors on the Box-Circle level of the Concert Hall. High in spirits after such a wonderful concert, we wanted to share a special surprise – our GRAMMY!
Yesterday evening, members of Pacific Symphony and Pacific Chorale came together for a concert of healing at Geneva Presbyterian Church – Laguna Woods. The Rev. Dr. Steven Marsh from Geneva Presbyterian Church and the Rev. Dr. Albany Lee from Irvine Taiwanese Presbyterian Church offered words of comfort and hope.
“There are so many ripples that pass through the fabric of Orange County when something like this happens,” Pacific Symphony Music Director Carl St.Clair said. “We need to do all we can with the strengthening and healing powers of music.”
The program included a world premiere (“Hymn of Healing”) and works by Haydn, Mozart and former Pacific Symphony composer-in-residence Frank Ticheli.
