Please celebrate the joy of song with CONCORA

How could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags.*

Giving Tuesday is in its 5^th year, but Dr. Seuss’ Grinch embraced the same spirit 60 years ago.

The holiday season is a celebration of life. Boxes and bags are fun, but true enjoyment lies deeper – with traditions like music that connect us with family and friends across the years. CONCORA was established for that very purpose – to connect devoted choral artists with audience members in a shared experience honoring the vision of composers past and present.

That’s our gift to you, but we can’t do it without you. Please celebrate the joy of song in live performance – right here, close to home – with a Giving Tuesday donation to CONCORA.

We’d like to share an excerpt from CONCORA's performance of the Brahms Requiem earlier this fall: the exquisite fourth movement, "How Lovely is they Dwelling Place," sung here in the original German, with Chris Shepard directing.

Coming up next! Our 2017-2018 concert season continues with Masses, Ancient and Modern on February 11, 2018 at Trinity College Chapel – an intimate journey through a capella sacred music. CLICK HERE to hear an excerpt from last year’s concert and reserve tickets. Visit www.concora.org to see our full calendar of concerts and special events.
