About Us
Northern Harmony
Northern Harmony is a
shifting collaboration of accomplished singers and instrumentalists,
based in Vermont, but including guest participants from across
the U.S. and from many foreign countries as well. The group
includes a core of veteran professional singers together
with some of the most brilliant recent graduates of the associated
Village Harmony teenage ensemble. The group has won a wide
reputation for its powerful sound, varied voicings, relaxed
and spontaneous stage presence, and eclectic repertoire. Read more→
Village Harmony
Village Harmony is
a year-round unauditioned chorus of young musicians,
ages 12 and up, based in Vermont. During the school year, the
ensemble draws singers to central Vermont for two-day weekend
rehearsals and local performances, culminating in a two-week-long
performing tour. In past years Village Harmony has performed
on Garrison Keillor's Prairie Home Companion and at the
Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC. Village HarmonyRead more→
Boston Harmony
Boston
Harmony is a Village Harmony-style non-auditioned ensemble now entering its third year.
We focus on authentic, traditional harmony singing from around the world:
lots of different traditional American styles, and folk music from countries
like South Africa, Caucasus Georgia, the Balkans, Ukraine, Corsica. The
group includes both adults and teens. We are expecting an influx of new
singers this year, including quite a few Village Harmony teens, and we are
excited about the possibilities. The year will culminate with three or four
concert performances in April and May.Read more→

Montplelier World Music Choir is based in Montpelier Vermont. We meet on Wednesday evenings, 7-9 pm, at the Montpelier Grange on Route 12. Our repertoire ranges from American shape-note, gospel and Appalachian music to traditional east European and west African and South African and Corsican harmony singing -- with some African and Bulgarian dancing thrown in, for good measure!

Onion River Chorus
Directed by Larry Gordon
Onion River Chorus is a community chorus that meets during the fall and spring
in Montpelier, Vermont. Adventurous from the outset, the group
chose for its 1978 debut performance Monteverdi's Vespers of
1610 (albeit not with original instruments). The group continues
to give ambitious and inventive performances, tackling early
baroque works by Charpentier, Schütz, Biber, and Cavalli,
as well as numerous contemporary works, including many by Vermont
composers. Onion River Chorus is unauditioned, and welcomes
singers of all abilities. Read more→
