WHO WE ARE: The Pittsburgh Camerata is a professional vocal ensemble which has been presenting choral concerts in Pittsburgh since 1974.
WHAT WE DO: We sing music you won’t hear performed anywhere else in Pittsburgh. Some of it is from the Renaissance and Baroque periods. Some is 20th or 21st century music. The remainder might be from any era. All of this is intended to be sung by a small choral ensemble.
Performances last anywhere from 75 minutes to 90 minutes.
Not all performances will have an intermission.
“Shenandoah,” arranged by Thomas Hewitt Jones was performed on October 21, 2018 as part of the concert “Homeward Bound.” The soloists are Brian Doherty and Charlene Canty.
