A group of singers, led by David Almond, gathered in the fall of 2008 to prepare and perform a concert honoring the life and music of Ralph Vaughan Williams.  The musicality and balance were inspiring, and the Kearsarge Chorale was formed.  We are a regional volunteer chorus based in New London, New Hampshire, and a registered non-profit organization.  Our members live in various Kearsarge/Sunapee-area towns.

 

To date, our support comes from singers' dues, donations from businesses and private donors, and ticket sales from our concerts.  We have also been successful in receiving grants from several foundations in our area.

​

Our concerts are frequently enhanced by professional instrumental ensembles and vocal soloists.

 

The Chorale performs two concerts each year, typically in the Spring and Fall. Concert content varies widely and includes great master works as well performances of new compositions.

 

Our concerts have included works by Bach, Wagner, Gershwin, Brahms, Haydn, Almond, Vaughan Williams,  Ravel, and many others.  Click on the "Past Performances" tab above to see a complete listing of composers and their works.
