Santa Cruz Singers – Fauré Requiem – A Community Concert

The Santa Cruz Foundation for the Performing Arts is proud to sponsor the Santa Cruz Singers in a performance of the Fauré Requiem – a choral treasure. The Santa Cruz Singers under the direction of Christina Wilhelm have been presenting high-quality performances here in Patagonia, Sonoita, Elgin, Nogales, Tubac (and once in Boston) for the past 22 years.

If you are a newcomer to the area you would have missed programs like the ones featuring the Vivaldi Gloria, the concert version of Les Miserables, Aaron Copland’s Early American Songs, the cantata “Ecce Cor Meum” by Paul McCartney and a variety of concerts of traditional favorites, including Broadway show tunes, Holiday gems and special theme related fundraisers for other local non-profits.

We are fortunate to have a group dedicated to preserving this cultural art form – a non-auditioned community chorus – a rarity in all of Santa Cruz county. Friends and neighbors with backgrounds and experiences that are truly remarkable and diverse meet each week to share in the music that they have learned and practiced – a place where the differences come together to speak as one voice.

This year our team of 29 members has become a true testimony to what commitment and effort can produce.

We hope you will come and show your support. A donation of $10 will help us maintain this most valuable asset to the community.
