Chamber Singers

The Hartford Chorale would like to thank Mike McAllister and Fazzino Photagraphy for donating photography services for the combined Hartford Chorale Chamber Singers and Vernon Chorale Great Music for Double Chorus concerts.

We are thrilled to realize a long-time dream and introduce the Hartford Chorale's new small ensemble: the Hartford Chorale Chamber Singers! The ensemble is a 24-voice group, auditioned from Hartford Chorale membership, and led by our Assistant Music Director, Ehren Brown.

The Hartford Chorale Chamber Singers enhance and extend the mission of the Chorale by reaching beyond the setting of the concert hall to entertain, educate and inspire a variety of new audiences through high quality choral performances.
