About this project

Los Robles Master Chorale is a 100-voice community choir in Ventura County, California that provides exciting, quality choral concerts in its community. Our 35th Anniversary Season (2012 | 13) includes masterworks by Schoenberg and Mahler, smaller works by Whitacre, Lauridsen and MacMillan, and focuses especially on featuring new choral works composed by new choral composers. In order to present powerful choral music that brings new life to classic repertoire and encourages the creation of new music, we seek to engage those who are passionate about choral music to support our financial goals for the upcoming season. Offering vital premieres, requires the support of individuals who enjoy the experience of hearing 100 human voices blending into one.
