Famed Harvard Glee Club Appears with LA Children's Chorus Young Men's Ensemble

The Los Angeles Children’s Chorus (LACC) begins the
New Year with a bang when its Young Men’s Ensemble (YME), conducted by Dr.
Steven Kronauer, is featured in a joint performance with the acclaimed Harvard
Glee Club, America's oldest collegiate choir, under the director of Andrew Clark, at
Altadena Community Church on Friday, January 17, 2014, 8 pm.  The choirs perform individually and jointly.



 



The Harvard Glee Club, widely considered to be the top collegiate
men’s choir in America, has twice performed with the Los Angeles Philharmonic
at the Hollywood Bowl, appeared at the Vatican under the baton of alumnus
Leonard Bernstein, and has sung with the New York Philharmonic, the Boston
Symphony and the Netherlands Chamber Orchestra, among other ensembles.  In addition to Bernstein, the Harvard Glee
Club, founded in 1858, counts many prominent Americans among the ranks of its
alumni, including composers Virgil Thomson, Irving Fine, John Harbison and
Elliott Carter – a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winner.  Non-musical alumni include Theodore
Roosevelt; Franklin Roosevelt; and former Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun.

LACC’s Young Men’s Ensemble, one
of only a few in the country to serve young male vocalists with changing voices, is designed for boys who wish to
pursue singing and the choral arts throughout middle and high school. It offers
quality vocal and choral training along with essential tools needed to bridge
the gap between treble and young men’s choral singing.   Established in 2009, YME features a
specially tailored musicianship course and individualized vocal coaching
sessions that adhere to LACC’s exceptionally high standards and rigor.  Among numerous highlights, YME has toured to
Germany, Austria and Italy and performed with the esteemed University of
