The Festival Choir of Madison strives to offer musically outstanding choral events unlike any other in Madison. Concerts celebrate diverse art music traditions from across the globe, ranging from “traditional” choral repertoire to new music by living composers. Founded in 1972, the Festival Choir of Madison is an auditioned, mixed-voice choir of 50 experienced singers who come from all walks of life to make music together. The Festival Choir of Madison is currently under the artistic direction of Sergei Pavlov, who also serves as Director of Choral Activities at Edgewood College.
