The Jackson Hole Chorale – Invitation to Sing at Carnegie Hall in New York City
Recognizing the Jackson Hole Chorale’s excellence in performance

JACKSON, WY. The Jackson Hole Chorale (the Chorale), Teton County’s Community Choir for 36 years, received a special invitation from Distinguished Concerts International New York City (DCINY) to participate in the performance of Mozart’s Requiem in Carnegie Hall, in New York City, on February 19, 2018 under the baton of Dr. James M. Meaders. Eight of the Chorale members will be attending, representing our community as ambassadors, and will be performing alongside other selected choirs across the USA and Canada. Dr. Jonathan Griffith, Artistic Director and Principal Conductor for DCINY states, “The Jackson Hole Chorale received this invitation due to their outstanding music programs demonstrating quality and high-level musicianship.”

Juline Christofferson, the Chorale Board President, comments, “To prepare for this performance, we have been rehearsing the Requiem under Ron Fabry, the Chorale’s gifted and highly certified Music Director/Conductor, whose quest for excellence over the last four years has brought our choir to high levels of distinction. It is due to Ron’s expertise and abilities, developing us into quality singers, that we have the honor to be invited to perform in New York.”

The Chorale singers will spend 5 days in New York attending rehearsals and preparing for the concert. All participating singers are looking forward to the memorable experience of performing at Carnegie Hall with a renowned conductor and a full orchestra.
