The St. Cecilia Chamber Choir is named after the
patron
saint of choral music and was formed in 1995 to promote excellence in
choral singing in Mid-Coast Maine. Directed by Linda Blanchard with the
assistance of accompanist Sean Fleming, the Choir specializes
in sacred music of the Renaissance and English choral traditions that
rely on a straight vocal tone (no vibrato). The Choir regularly
performs compositions from contemporary composers as well, including
composers residing in Maine.
The Choir's members hail from communities across
Mid-Coast Maine from Rockland to Dresden and are selected following an
audition process. St. Cecilia Chamber Choir is a 501(c)3 corporation
incorporated as a non-profit for which contributions are tax-deductible
for federal or state income tax purposes.
