Join us this July for the eighth annual Saratoga Choral Festival.
Singers will meet for rehearsals over a three-week period in Saratoga Springs beginning Tuesday, July 15th,
and will perform in a concert open to the public at the SPA LITTLE THEATER on Sunday, Aug. 3rd, at 2:30 p.m.
This summer's concert will feature the Bach Magnificat for chorus and orchestra, and Mozart’s Regina Coeli
K.276 and Veni Sancti Spiritu K.47. Joining us on the program will be the Philadelphia Orchestra’s Society
Hill Chamber Players who will both play in our orchestra and perform a work on their own.
 The Saratoga Choral Festival began in the summer of 2001 with the hopes of becoming a chorus-in-development for summer
season of the Saratoga Performing Arts Center. Previous seasons have featured Mozart’s Requiem
(repeated in October 2001 as a benefit for the Red Cross and victims of 9/11), Haydn’s Lord Nelson Mass, Vaughan
Williams’ Dona Nobis Pacem, the Fauré and Duruflé Requiem, and Handel’s Dixit Dominus.
In August of 2004, the chorus finally realized its dream of performing with the Philadelphia orchestra in a critically acclaimed
performance of the Mahler 3rd Symphony with the Harlem Boys Choir under the direction of Charles Dutoit at SPAC.
