| The
Western New York Chorale is the area's oldest vocal chamber ensemble specializing
in Early Music (15th and 16th centuries). The Western New York Chorale, Herbert
Tinney, Music Director, strives for excellence in historically-informed performance
of a varied repertoire of "holie and worldlie" choral music.
The Chorale also distinguishes itself by searching out "hidden treasures", most
recently Renaissance and Baroque music from the New World, and little known music
from Western New York's rich and colorful history. Inquiries are invited, from
singers and others. Sopranos:
Mary Bisson, Maura Sullivan, Ellen Evers, Mary Harty, Sandra Maiwald, Margaret
Maloy.
Altos: MaryJean Conibear, Ruth Johnson, Lynn Merkel, Lynn
Wright, Sarah Zebehazy
Tenors: Terrence Bisson, Joseph Maiwald
Basses: Lawrence Gottesman, Robert Grimm, Roland Hayes How
to join us: The Chorale is open to the entire Western New York community.
A voice tryout - a voice test, and ear test (pitch matching), and a simple music
reading test - is required.
