Month: July 2023

Summer in progress

We’re in full swing!  The Zanaida Stewart Robles Singers are gearing up for our Summer Choral Intensive that starts in early August (there’s still time to sign up!), I have commissions in the works, and I’ve been traveling a bit. As a teacher, summer is always a time of renewal and contemplation, and this year is no different. 

Below, you’ll see bits of the biggest projects coming up.  It’s going to be a big new season, this 2023-24!  More soon…


Conducting

I’ll be conducting a special service at Neighborhood Church on Sunday, August 13… but here’s the project that leads up to it.  We’d love to have you join us!

Be sure to check out the new “ZSR Singers” page on my website.  We’ll continue to post updates there, as well as on the Facebook group for this growing community.  Hope to see you there!

Join us in August for our first Summer Choral Intensive with the newly-formed Zanaida Stewart Robles Singers!  There will be beautiful music and a US premiere of my “Blühende Bäume”, and our venue at the Neighborhood Church in Pasadena is just gorgeous. It’s a chance to work on your choral chops, rediscover the joy of singing together, and perform with a live string ensemble.

We’re particularly in need of tenors and basses, but all are welcome.  If the program fee is the only thing holding you back, please contact me, and let’s talk.

Details are in the flyer above, or click the button below to go straight to the registration page.

To keep an eye on what this amazing new ensemble is doing, you can also join our Facebook group for the ZSR Singers, and be sure to follow us on Instagram!


Composing

With a new commission for the Los Angeles Master Chorale this season, it’s going to be a busy year.  Their concerts often sell out, so be sure to grab your seats early for April 6th or 7th, 2024.  Here’s the basic info, and you can get tickets and details on their website.
