San Diego, CA (February 15, 2023) — The San Diego Master Chorale will host its 7th Annual High School Honor Choir on March 11, 2023. This special event brings 100 talented high school students from across San Diego County together in a Free Community Concert with the SD Master Chorale. This special event is also an opportunity for the public to hear the SD Master Chorale in concert, free of charge. 

The High School Honor Choir features talented high school singers nominated by music teachers from San Diego, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties. Led by Music Director John K. Russell, the students spend the day in workshops and rehearsals, inspiring music-making beyond high school. 

A recent High School Honor Choir participant, Jacob, commented, “The honor choir program is a truly unique experience that brings people like me together to explore our passions and develop our creative and musical souls.”

The day culminates with a Free Community Concert, uniting generations of voices in music of hope and joy. This year’s program features works by Mozart, Abbie Betinis, Ola Gjeilo, Rachmaninoff, and more. 

The Free Community Concert begins at 4:30 pm and is open to the public. The concert takes place on Saturday, March 11, 2023, at First United Methodist Church (2111 Camino del Rio S, San Diego). All tickets for this event are free with online registration. For tickets, visit sdmasterchorale.org.
