 Our 28th Season


Voices of Peace and Love

Something special is happening along the Grand Strand, where arts and culture are blossoming like never before.  The Carolina Master Chorale is delighted to share the charge, hand in hand with our colleagues in music, theatre, dance, arts education and concert presentation in offering the most artistically stimulating events ever available in the region.

Composer-in-Residence and CMC accompanist Dr. Andrew Fowler and I enter our eleventh season of combined leadership in choral music-making, and we hope you are catching the fever. Further, we hope you are spreading the fever to everyone you love, as a gift to them and as a gift to the community, fostering the continuing growth of our arts scene. 
 
Our desire for you as an audience member at every one of our concerts is that you will feel the passion that binds us all together through committed performances of the world’s most compelling music for voices and instruments.  At each of our events we expect to offer an encounter that is unique in your life, communicating with you through deep and meaningful artistic gestures, and sending you away certain that your life is richer for the experience.
 
We hope you will avail yourself of every opportunity to be uplifted on our season.  Catch the fever, and hear the Voices of Passion!  You’ll be glad you came.  You have my word on that!
