This past weekend the MasterVoices Chorus sang in two epic wildly contrasting programs: The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers in Concert at Radio City Music Hall, and Blind Injustice at Montclair State University.
Juggling such varied repertoire is no small feat but we rose to the challenge, stretched our vocal cords, and had a blast working with new and old friends and collaborators. Read more details below!

Led by the masterful conductor Maestro Ludwig Wicki, the chorus performed 4 nights to sold-out audiences at Radio City Music Hall, along with Brooklyn Youth Chorus, Orchestra of St. Luke’s and soloist Kaitlyn Lusk.
Across the river in New Jersey, a smaller cadre of the MasterVoices chorus joined forces with Montclair State students to perform in two gripping performances of Blind Injustice, with musical direction by our artistic director, Ted Sperling.
