About THE FESTIVAL CHORUS

Under current Artistic Director, Cody Obst, the chorus continues to expand an ever widening range of choral experiences reflecting a burgeoning interest in performing world music in original languages. The Festival Chorus has enjoyed some spectacular musical partnerships over the years and shared the stage with the Foothills Brass, Alan Monk, and Kronos Quartet among others, and helped to launch the career of many young singers.
