St Charles Singers

St. Charles Singers, founded in 1984, is a cadre of professional musicians, of which 32 38 typically sing in each performance under the direction of Maestro Jeff Hunt. Recognized for sublime interpretation of choral classics, the singers strive for excellence in every performance, sing with passion and demonstrate a sincere desire to create beauty... and connect with their audience. The choirs home venue is Baker Memorial United Methodist Church in St. Charles, IL. Performances also occur in and around the city of Chicago and occasionally the choir travels nationally and internationally. The choirs discography includes our most recent CD releases, American Reflections and Bushes and Briars (MSR); holiday music CDs Christmas in St. Charles and From out of a Wood; American Songs (Naxos), and I Know Where Im Going (Proteus) St. Charles Singers continues its Mozart Journey, a musically challenging undertaking of an estimated 17 concerts, through which Mozarts sacred choral compositions will be performed and recorded. To our knowledge no American choir has previously performed and recorded this volume of music as the complete, known genre. The choir is committed to making this 18th Century music readily available to a 21st Century audience trough this historic undertaking. St Charles Singers is a 501 (c) 3, non-profit organization. Educational outreach includes the awarding of higher education scholarships, invitations to high school choral groups to serve as concert assistants and the annual Sing! Workshop for Teens. We seek to include these initiatives as a means of acting on our mission and vision. We appreciate our audience as a part of our music family and thank you for your support.Read More
