Last year, we were privileged to host two international Friendship concerts in conjunction with the World Choir Games. These amazing performances including this snippet from Germany’s choir, Sängerkreis Hildburghausen, left us spellbound. 
This year, we are excited to offer our gallery for hire to choir groups seeking an ideal acoustic environment. The vaulted ceilings within the space create a rich and resonant sound that will elevate your rehearsals and performances. Ready to make some beautiful music?
