Disrupting the Canon
Choral classics reimagined
2025 – 2026 Season
New York Choral Society’s 67th Season
Join us for a bold, disruptive season. We’re breaking classical music stereotypes and transforming the concert hall. Our 67th Season, Disrupting the Canon: Choral Classics Reimagined, dares to do something different. We’re challenging the way we experience choral music, transforming familiar masterworks into bold, immersive, and emotionally powerful events.
From staging Honegger’s King David as a full theatrical production to reframing Mozart’s Requiem with new music by Gregory Spears and dynamic visual projections, we are pushing beyond the traditional concert format.
