Collegiate choir to perform at Carnegie Hall in April

Students will work with world-renown composer Maestro John Rutter

LOUISVILLE, KY. – Louisville Collegiate School is proud to announce that its Chamber Choir has been invited to participate in a performance conducted by world-renown composer and conductor, Maestro John Rutter, in historic Carnegie Hall on Monday, April 2.

The students will spend five days in New York City in preparation for the concert. They will join other choruses selected from throughout North America to form a festival chorus that will perform Rutter’s “Magnificat.”

“Our choir will spend around 10 hours in rehearsals during the five days, which will eventually lead to our performance at Carnegie Hall with professional orchestra and soloists,” said Collegiate choir director Jan Tedesco.

She said her department is seeking assistance for some of the students’ trip, which will include visits to the historic and cultural aspects of New York City. For anyone who would like to help contribute to sending a singer to Carnegie Hall, please contact Tedesco at (502) 479-0340 ext. 666 or at
jan_tedesco@loucol.com.


Established in 1915, Louisville Collegiate School is a co-ed college-preparatory independent school for students from kindergarten through 12th grade.
