Upcoming Performances

Westchester Choral Society and Hudson Chorale joined voices for two performances featuring over 100 vocalists and a 34-member orchestra. The concerts were held at the beautiful and capacious O’Byrne Chapel at Manhattanville University, with the combined groups performing Orff’s Carmina Burana and Dvorak’s Te Deum.

Enjoy the full May 2026 concert performances via our YouTube concert playlist.

Thank you to all who attended or supported Hudson Chorale through our March benefit event, which featured a jazz concert by the SUNY Purchase Music Conservatory’s finest. Attendees enjoyed Union Church of Pocantico’s famous Chagall and Matisse stained-glass windows, a reception, and silent auction in the church hall.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Requiem
Christopher Tin: The Lost Birds

Mozart’s beloved Requiem was paired with Christopher Tin’s The Lost Birds: An Extinction Elegy for an enthralling concert, performed on January 24 and February 1. (Footage below shares the Requiem portion, as The Lost Birds is under a limited copyright agreement.)

Requiem by Maurice Duruflé

Jennifer Marshall, soprano, and Emily Landa Levine, mezzo-soprano, sang favorite duets from opera (and elsewhere), accompanied by David Baranowski. We are so grateful for their gift of music, and for those who helped raise funds for the chorus by attending and also participating in the silent auction.

We were thrilled to introduce two unique pieces at our January 25-26 concerts at Maryknoll Chapel in Ossining, NY: Malhaar: A Requiem for Water by Indian-American composer Reena Esmail, and Carols and Lullabies by Conrad Susa.
