Summer Singers of Atlanta

07/18/2024

As we continue to prepare for our upcoming concert, we thought it might be fun to look back 8 years in the Choral Foundation video archives to highlight one of the pieces the Summer Singers of Atlanta will be performing on Sunday, August 4th.

This recording is the New South Festival Singers performing Gabriel Faure CANTIQUE DE JEAN RACINE on Monday, 30 May in the Circular Church in Charleston, SC, as part of the 2016 Piccolo Spoleto Festival. Student Intern Albert Clark, conducting, Jack Walker, alto flute, Ms. Swanson, piano.

Other classics on the upcoming SSA program includes Mendelssohn: VERLEIH UNS FRIEDEN; Fauré: CANTIQUE DE JEAN RACINE; Bruckner: OS JUSTI and LOCUS ISTE; a modern work by Glenn Rudolph: THE DREAM ISAIAH SAW, and of course the centerpiece, Rutter's Requiem.

Enjoy, friends! If you haven't purchased your tickets for the concert, yet, you may purchase from a summer singer or with a credit card online at www.ChoralFoundation.org/concerts

As we culminate this wonderful 2023 year of growth and joy, we need your help to continue to stay debt-free and expand in our service to our members, our audiences and our growing international communities.

The thousands of listeners who have enjoyed performances by our over 600 participants involved in 10 performing ensembles in four states (KS, MO, IL, and GA) is thrilling, but it is far from the whole story. The Choral Foundation has long supported the choral art nationwide and, in 2023, has dramatically expanded an international profile.

The New South Festival Singers - Atlanta, GA has been one of the South's leading choral ensembles for nearly four decades. Under the brilliant leadership of Music Director Lynn Swanson, the semi-professional Atlanta-based chorale is receiving accolades from audience members and critics alike. Recently, they have released a brand-new CD recording, Legacies of Light, on the AMBER WAVES label. It will be available for purchase on December 1 on CD and is already on all digital music platforms. The recording is a delightful blend of the Festival Singers' signature a ca****la classics and spirituals, recorded ‘live’ in concert at the 2023 Piccolo Spoleto Festival in Charleston.

Three Fellows from the Choral Foundation's The The Institute for Healthy Singing & Voice Research took the work of science-based singing instruction to Kenya to support music education in Africa. Through the work of Choral Foundation members and supporters, 100+ musical instruments have been sent to Kenya and more are waiting to be shipped. Interns and students of IHS&VR may now qualify for graduate and continuing education credit through a partnership with MidAmerica Nazarene University. Our staff of IHS&VR fellows now includes 14 voice scientists, teachers, MD otolaryngologists, and music therapists offering vocal training nationwide.

The 2023 Summer Singers of Atlanta, 110 voices strong, joined with full orchestra for a gala performance of the MASS IN Eb by Franz Schubert under the leadership of Music Director Andrew Schmidt. The 2023 Cobb Summer Singers, led by Lynn Swanson, performed a creative concert of works by Camille Saint-Saens and Johann Sebastian Bach, including the great master's beloved MAGNIFICAT.

Voces Festivas, our Spanish language ensemble, continues to grow in size and reputation, having been featured in "The Independent" magazine on a number of occasions, on KSHB-41 television news, and through performances at the Hispanic Heritage Month Festival through the Johnson County (Kansas) Arts and Heritage Center and at Cinco de Mayo sponsored by the Guadelupe Center in Kansas City.

The JANE Sullivan Choral Library has greatly expanded its holdings and the number of ensembles it serves across the nation. Through a grant from the Kansas Creative Arts Industries Commission to archive music history, we have begun the process of digitizing our extensive collections, now among the largest in the United States. The library includes collections of rare recordings, 14,000+ octavo titles in quantity, books, hymnals, and scores available for researchers and historians.

The Institute for Choral Creativity received over 300 submissions from dozens of countries for its most recent new music competition. Winning choral works from the ICC have received regional premiers by Choral Foundation ensembles in Kansas City, Atlanta, Chicago, and at Charleston's Piccolo Spoleto Festival.

Staff members of the Choral Foundation continue gaining national and international recognition. Founder Dr. William Baker was named national second-place winner of the Dale Warland Award for Choral Conducting and was named a National Arts Associate by Sigma Alpha Iota. Executive Associate Director and IHS&VR director Dr. Jamea Sale has enjoyed scholarly papers reviewed by Dr. Jean Abitbol, a world renown otorhinolaryngologist in Paris and has been invited to speak about vocal health in 2024 in Helsinki, Finland. Lynn Swanson, MME, was chosen as one of eight music leaders world-wide to receive the ACME (Artists, Composers, Musicologists and Educators) Award from Mu Phi Epsilon International Fraternity and Foundation. These are but a few of the accolades bestowed this year on Choral Foundation staff members.

All this good news began in Atlanta with the creation of the first Festival Singers choir in 1985. It has grown and grown from three metro areas in the United States to an international presence from China to Kenya. I don't have space to tell you about the many exciting things also happening with our Kansas City and Chicago ensembles. As you can see the William Baker Choral Foundation is growing exponentially. Every day we serve the musical art, participants at all levels of skill and experience, and tens of thousands of listeners in concerts, broadcasts, and recordings.

We are as committed to fiscal responsibility as we are to musical excellence. We are one of the rare large arts organizations in America that is debt free. The opportunities are boundless, and the need is urgent. I am asking you to make a generous, tax-deductible gift TODAY to the GIVING TUESDAY Campaign. Please help us reach our end of year goal of raising $60,000 by December 31, 2023. Though we have until December 31 to apply gifts to our challenge goal, funds are needed immediately as we have launched a busy 2023-2024 concert season.

Making your generous gift TODAY is easy...
Online: Please visit www.ChoralFoundation.org/makeagift today. You will be directed to our Donor box giving portal. Your gift may be directed to a specific ensemble, location, or a specific project. It may also be given in honor or memory of a loved one.

"The moon gives you light,
And the bugles and the drums give you music,
And my heart, O my soldiers, my veterans,
My heart gives you love."
(Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass, 1881)

Without FREEDOM the arts cannot survive in love and truth. Indeed, freedom is the oxygen of the arts. We give thanks to God for the men and women, past and present, who's courage, love and sacrifice has led them to take up arms to secure and defend the freedoms we enjoy. On this Veterans Day, the musical family that is William Baker Choral Foundation expresses our honor and our love for each one of our blessed veterans. May God preserve and protect you as your service to our nation protects each of us.

What a spectacular afternoon of singing! We have received many many, many accolades for the Summer Singers of Atlanta chorus performance! The audience truly enjoyed the concert and loved hearing the group of musicians bring Schubert to life!

Thanks to our talented director, Andrew Schmidt for his vision to bring this piece of classic music back to the Atlanta community.

Two local luminaries, Dr. David Morrow (Morehouse University), and Dr. Erica Tazawa (Kennesaw State University) were present in the audience and so appreciated the monumental task of approaching this masterwork.

Congratulations to all Summer Singers of Atlanta participants including chorus, accompanist, orchestra, and distinguished soloists. It was a glorious concert, and even more successful knowing we climbed the mountain and gave a super concert.

08/06/2023

It's concert day! Just to confirm in case there is any confusion, the concert today is at 4 PM ET. We will see you there!

It's concert weekend!!! The Summer Singers of Atlanta met with our Chamber orchestra this morning in dress rehearsal... it was an incredibly inspirational rehearsal and so much fun to add our voices to a FANTASTIC chamber orchestra + soloists.

See a picture below of our performance bows in 2022 for works with organ and soloists. Now, imagine this same venue with a choir of over 100 voices (twice as many as last summer) plus an orchestra of 21 players! Over 120 musicians are involved in this project and we could not be prouder of their great work and support for the arts in Atlanta.

You are in for a treat on Sunday afternoon. We sure hope that you can join us for this very special concert of Franz Schubert's Mass in E-flat with an amazing collection of musicians. The venue is Glenn Memorial Auditorium on the Emory campus, Sunday August 6 at 4:00pm. Tickets can be purchased at this link ahead of time... www.choralfoundation.org/concerts or at the door. Arrive early for best general admission seating.

We would personally like to thank one of our sponsors for the Schubert Mass. The Georgia Council for the Arts provides grant funding for the Summer Singers of Atlanta. We could not be growing in our scope and affecting the lives of so many in a positive way without their belief in the William Baker Choral Foundation of Georgia. Thank you, Georgia Council for the Arts!

Yesterday, we had a sneak preview into a rehearsal for the soloists for the Schubert E-flat. Now today, you have a peek into the full choir rehearsal of 100+ Summer Singers of Atlanta (pre-orchestra)!

Do you have your tickets, yet? It is this weekend, Sunday, AUGUST 6 @ 4:00pm, Glenn Memorial Auditorium.
www.choralfoundation.org/concerts

We are so proud of the chorus progress this summer! The group is singing so beautifully with the piano accompaniment, but we can't wait to hear the Summer Singers of Atlanta put together with the orchestra this Saturday! It is hard to believe that the summer of singing is almost at it's culmination!

Thank you, Felicia for this great video. Andrew commented, "My favorite part is when I yell SOCCER during a rest!!! I bet Schubert would have wanted that written if he knew how big football would become globally!" See if you can find it in the video! :)

08/01/2023

Here is a sneak peek into the quartet rehearsal today. We hope to whet your appetite with this little tidbit of our upcoming performance. You can purchase tickets TODAY at www.choralfoundation.org/concerts , but they will also be available at the door.

Our Summer Singers of Atlanta soloists are working hard behind the scenes to bring you a breathtaking performance of the Schubert mass in E-flat. Fun fact: It was Schubert's final setting of the order of Mass, and is classified as a missa solemnis. The mass was not performed until after Schubert's death, with a premiere in the Alserkirche on October 4, 1829.

The soloists in the video clip are...
Soprano, Wanda Yang Temko
Countertenor, Douglas Dodson
Tenor, Cory Klose
Baritone, Michael Dauterman

Join us for the performance on...

Mu Phi Epsilon is focused on the advancement of music in the community, nation, and world through promotion of musicianship, scholarship, therapy, and education, with an emphasis on service through music. Lynn Swanson has always been a Stand-out in the Choral Foundation and we could not be more proud of her international recognition with this award!!

While in residence in China, she traveled to the city of Wuhan where she served as Artist-in-Residence at the Hong An Tian Thai Temple Monastery. Lynn prepared the 60 voice Monastery Choir for their first performance at the Beijing International Choral Competition 2018.
