Now in its ninth season under the direction of Kristin Sponheim, Camerata d’Amici is a 35-member auditioned choral ensemble*, drawn from towns in Fairfield and Westchester counties. It also includes a chamber choir of twelve members. Camerata performs three concerts per season, in December, March, and May, as well as outreach concerts at local retirement communities.
Their winter concert is Sunday, March 8, at 4 p.m at St. Andrew’s Lutheran Church, Ridgefield. To purchase tickets, please click here.
The diversity of our repertoire is one of the things that makes Camerata d’Amici unique. The music we sing is exceptionally broad and varied, representing the voices of different eras, cultures and peoples. We aspire through this repertoire to connect with the hearts of our audience, to channel the art of the composer and poet, to communicate what it means to be human. As Beethoven wrote on the title page of his Missa Solemnis: “From the heart – may it return to the heart.”
