About

A Chicago musical landmark since 1971, the William Ferris Chorale is known for its “warm yet full-bodied choral tone and articulate, unaffected expressive gestures” (ClassicsToday.com) and “knack for unearthing interesting, seldom-heard music” (Chicago Tribune). 'American Choral Premieres' is the latest testament to the choir’s mission and stellar reputation.

With its music director and conductor Paul French, the midsize, mixed-voice ensemble performs world-premiere recordings of sacred and spiritual pieces by nine recent and contemporary composers.
