Recordings
Two of the Bay Area’s most beloved and wide-ranging chamber ensembles came together for the first time in May 2011. The Choral Artists collaborated with The Alexander String Quartet in new compositions for chamber choir and string quartet. This landmark program was captured in a recording by Grammy-winning producer Judith Sherman, released in 2012.
Music Among Friends celebrates the ties between our chamber ensemble and the lively community of local composers who have generously shared their wonderful music with us. 16 works are by Bay Area composers, 5 are SFCA-commissioned world premieres, and several others have never before been commercially recorded.
Recorded in San Francisco’s renowned St. Ignatius Church, one of the West Coast’s most beautiful and acoustically awesome churches, in the middle of the night to escape traffic noise.
The pioneer spirit of America is celebrated through this eclectic and engaging collection. Most are works by living composers, several from the San Francisco Bay Area, and many works are recorded here for the first time.
