Announcing our 2026-2027 Season!
The West Village Chorale is excited to announce our 2026-2027 season, which opens with our annual holiday concert and closes with an eclectic program of spring-themed works. At the center of our season is our winter concert, where we’ll be joined by a full orchestra and a quartet of soloists to present two performances of Mozart’s Requiem, his final masterpiece—one beloved by musicians and audiences alike.
Sing Mozart’s Requiem and Support the WVC!
Year after year, summer after summer, Mozart’s Requiem is one of our most popular offerings. The summer may be behind us, but as we begin preparing for our own March performances of this work, you’re invited to join us and sing this masterpiece in our Summer Sing workshop-setting, under the baton of our Artistic Director, Colin Britt.
Whether you’ve performed it dozens of times or not at all (yet), join us on Thursday, November 19th at 7:30 pm and meet members of the WVC and fellow singers from around the city as we dig in and sing through this beloved piece.
In a throwback to our pre-COVID days, refreshments will be served, and fabulous prizes raffled off!
Admission is $20 general/$15 student with ID and can be reserved online or purchased at the door.
Come sing with us!
Join our 2027 Concert Tour!
It’s not too late to join our summer 2o27 concert tour, when the WVC and friends will head out to central Europe, with stops and performances in Prague, Budepest and Vienna.
Singers in all voice parts are welcome (especially you tenors and basses!), as are non-singing friends and family.
