Chalice Consort is pleased to have been reviewed by San Francisco Classical Voice for two concert sets in the 2008-2009 inaugural season. Click below to read the reviews.
Chalice Consort welcomes Davitt Moroney as Artistic Director. See press release here. Chalice Consort is presenting five newly transcribed, never published in modern edition or publicly performed pieces at the Early Music Mining Conference April 10, 2010. The winners of the Early Music Scholars’ Competition, whose editions will be featured at the Early Music Mining Conference, are Sean Doherty (Trinity College, Dublin), Peter Poulos (University of Cincinnati, Ohio), Jessica Chisholm (Rutgers University, New Jersey), Michael Anderson (Eastman School of Music, New York), and Daniel Donnelly (McGill University, Montreal). Their editions being premiered at the Conference include part of a mass by English composer William Mundy, a motet by Italian composer Simone Molinaro, a trio of plainchants for St. Anne, and two motets by anonymous composers. San Francisco Classical Voice previewed Chalice Consort's upcoming November 6 & 7, 2009 concerts: "The enterprising young choral ensemble Chalice Consort sure dreams big. Barely a year old, the group has already taken on a challenging mission: to present performances emphasizing lost, ignored, or otherwise overlooked Renaissance and Baroque repertory. More than merely performing, the group aims to get scholars into the act, with an upcoming competition and conference to share their own discoveries. And in a real coup, the ensemble has enlisted early-music standout Davitt Moroney to direct its 2009-2010 opening concert of music by William Byrd, titled “By the Waters of Babylon,” performed in San Francisco and Oakland..."
