T
he grammy-nominated Grant Gershon and the LA Master Chorale Los Angeles Master Chorale (LAMC), led by Music Director Photo Credit: Lee Salem Grant Gershon, is recognized as one of the city's cultural treasures and one of the world's premier choruses. The Los Angeles Times proclaims, “Under Gershon, the Master Chorale seems to be able to master anything.” The respected arts blog CultureSpot LA, states, “The Master Chorale is not just any ensemble—it is the nation's, and maybe the world's, most innovative choral group, thriving under its vibrant music director, Grant Gershon.” As part of our strategic planning process, a revised mission statement was adopted in 2009: We are an independent and innovative professional vocal ensemble that shares the traditional and evolving spectrum of choral music with the widest possible audience. We advance this art through performance, community education, collaboration, commissioning, and recording.
