Experience an evening of extraordinary choral music with not one but two fully professional chamber choirs! Following their invitational performance at the American Choral Directors Association (ACDA) National Convention, Santa Fe Desert Chorale is honored to share the stage with Orpheus Chamber Singers in this unique, one-night-only event in Dallas, Texas. This professional choral ensemble based in the Dallas/Fort Worth area is currently led by Artistic Director JD Burnett, a Desert Chorale artist for over 20 years. Join us as the Desert Chorale goes on the road again!

We are thrilled to share an abbreviated version of our acclaimed 2023 summer program The American Immigrant Experience on this Dallas tour. View the 2023 program book below to learn more about this popular program.
