"Howells's opulent, stained-glass harmonies in the 'Requiem aeternum' section were sung with exquisite intonation, and they managed to make at least one listener catch their breath in Howells's 'Psalm 121.' They printed the complete texts in the program, but with diction this precise, you didn't need it. The ensemble soloists who stepped up delivered their lines with clarity and humility, setting their contributions in sharp relief to the deep sounds behind them." --Marc Geelhoed, November 4, 2007
Make a Donation to Chorale
Please consider supporting Chicago Chorale with a tax-deductible contribution. Chorale is proud to present its performances at modest ticket prices or for free admission thanks to the support of numerous individual and institutional donors.
As a donor to Chorale, you can be assured that your investment in the group is mirrored by a heartfelt commitment on the part of the volunteer singers of Chorale. Unlike peer ensembles, Chorale does not provide financial compensation to any member of the group (even though many members are active professionally as choristers, soloists, and music directors and teachers). In fact, all members pay annual dues to ensure the fiscal health of the organization.
Chorale additionally keeps its institutional costs low thanks to the many hours of volunteer service provided by singers: maintaining the website and database, assisting with publicity and fundraising efforts, arranging production needs for concerts, and providing piano accompaniment for rehearsals. This ensures that as much of your gift as possible goes to support the artistic endeavors of Chorale: hiring instrumentalists, engaging quality soloists, and purchasing music.
Donors at the $100 level and above receive recognition in Chorale's concert programs. At higher levels benefits include invitations to special events with members of Chorale and Artistic Director Bruce Tammen. For information about sponsoring specific artistic initiatives or for other questions about support for Chorale, please contact info@chicagochorale.org.
