About Us

Founded in 2002, Renaissance is a select group of about three dozen singers committed to presenting high-quality choral music to Charlotte and the surrounding region.  The group sings short-form classical music from all periods and genres. Although many members are professional or semi-professional musicians, all singers participate on a strictly volunteer basis and annual auditions are required.

We invite you to join us for our 2011-2012 season as we again draw from the vast treasure of great choral literature. Our trio of concerts spans more than 500 years of music written for the choral instrument, and there will be music to please every palate. As always, our aim is to present to the Charlotte region the very best choral literature performed to an exacting standard. If you love the sound of voices lifted in beautiful harmony, come and join our musical journey and let the music take you to a place you otherwise could not go. We do it LIVE!

Our next concert:

Sacred & Profane
Saturday, May 19 • 8 pm
St. John’s Baptist Church
300 Hawthorne Lane • Charlotte
 
SACRED & PROFANE celebrates the contrasts found in great poetry amplified by sublime choral settings from an array of master composers.

Benjamin Britten’s brilliant setting of W. H. Auden’s ‘Hymn to St. Cecilia’  is a work that embodies this dichotomy—a hymn celebrating a saint, with no mention of the Almighty.  Original choral gems by Aguiar, Barber, Biebl, Brahms, and Poulenc, as well as song and spiritual settings illustrate the great diversity to be found in the universal language of music.

Robert Pritchard, Artistic Director  •  Dr. J. Michael Grant, Accompanist
