Our Singing Reviews


 

A REPUTATION FOR EXCELLENCE

 

What they’re saying about us….

 

Barbara Zuck, Senior Critic, Columbus Dispatch

“Impressive throughout were the Chorale’s excellent intonation, lovely, floating sound and superb balance…the Chorale responded in full, powerful tones articulated as if by one voice.”

  

Kirke Mechem, ‘Dean’ of American Choral Composers, San Francisco

“My Three Motets have never sounded better…tempos just right, with more subtlety of phrasing and more beautiful tone color than I have ever heard!”

  

Stephen Paulus, Composer, Minnesota

“I was most impressed by the Lancaster Chorale.  I think you have a wonderful ensemble sound, and give such fine attention to the real musical details – phrasing, articulation, text – all the important aspects that make for great musical experiences.”

  

Dale Warland, Founding Director, Dale Warland Singers

“It is so exciting to hear the fabulous strides you are making in artistic development…leaps would be a better word!  You have established something very special in Lancaster!”

  

Ralph O’Dette, Critic, Columbus Dispatch

“The Lancaster Chorale, pride of a city that has much to be proud of, was in fine form all afternoon, singing with conviction, skill, vitality and good blend.”

  

Jeffrey Van, Composer, St. Paul (Critique of CD ‘Child of Peace’)

“Great…rich and lovely sound, and balance and intonation are terrific…  

…really beautiful singing!”

  

Jean Belmont, Composer, Kansas

“It’s a lovely choir – wonderful basses and a great sound overall – fine control by the singers.  It’s obvious how much your singers care about the music.”
