Dear Friends of St. Charles Singers: 

Exploring the vast array of choral music held within the beautiful fabric of this amazing art form is something I look forward to doing each year. The process centers around finding music that will hopefully be exciting, fun, and rewarding for both singers and audience, and yes, it can be a bit overwhelming.  

Our music this year will honor the great traditions of the past by including the music of the early Renaissance—with the music of Johannes Ockeghem—through music of the Baroque period, Romantic period, and the 20th century. Our ensemble also seeks to serve living composers as well, so each concert will feature music that has been created in the 21st Century. You will hear music sung unaccompanied and music that will be accompanied by a colorful palette of instruments including viola, clarinet and piano, organ, and string ensemble. In the end, more than 35 composers’ works will be presented over the four-concert season, so there is certainly something for everyone. 

If you end up coming to one concert or all four, I look forward to greeting you and thanking you for being a patron of the St. Charles Singers! I hope you enjoy the concerts.

With best wishes,

Jeff Hunt
Founder and Music Director

I have been privileged to direct Jeff Hunt’s choir on a number of fondly-remembered occasions over the years, and it is like being allowed to drive someone else’s finely-tuned Rolls-Royce (or whatever is your favorite luxury car). They purr along effortlessly at high speed, negotiate the awkward corners with ease, make you feel like a better driver-and you don’t even have to fill them up with fuel.
