2024/25 SEASON

The Seasons
THE SEASON
Featuring SNS Chorale and The Sunday Night Singers
The Seasons is more than just the closing concert of our season. It’s a reflection of the journey we’ve taken as a choir over the last 20 years. Like the changing seasons, our singers have grown, evolved, and flourished. Joshua Shank’s music, which has become foundational to who we are, beautifully captures this natural cycle of life and transformation.
This special performance features The Seasons, multi-movement works that have not only become some of our favorites, but have helped shape our identity as an ensemble.
Featuring SNS Chorale and The Sunday Night Singers, this concert also includes the full sets that will be performed by The Sunday Night Singers in Denmark this summer as part of the prestigious Grand Prix of Nations.
As we celebrate 20 years of music-making, we invite you to join us for an evening that honors the past, embraces the future, and highlights the enduring power of choral music.

The program will include performances by students from Desert Youth Voices alongside guest singers from The Sunday Night Singers, highlighting the spirit of collaboration and mentorship that defines this ensemble. As part of the evening, we are proud to present the world premiere of a newly commissioned work by composer Brian Quan, written in partnership with students and inspired by their reflections on what it means to be part of a community.
The Music Exchange is a space where voices from the community come together not just to perform, but to connect. Following the performance, guests are invited to stay for a light reception and celebrate with the singers, families, and teaching artists who helped shape this milestone year.
