Founded in 1964 by Richard Westenburg, Musica Sacra is the longest continuously performing professional chorus in New York City. Musica Sacra presents performances each year at prestigious venues throughout New York City, including Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. "Presented with musical skill and stylistic insight" (The New York Times), the chorus and orchestra's performances of Handel's Messiah are a New York holiday tradition. In addition, the Music Sacra Chorus is frequently invited to perform with such ensembles as the New York Philharmonic, Orchestra of St. Luke's, New York City Ballet, New York City Opera, and concert presenters throughout the region. The mission of Musica Sacra is to create definitive, professional choral performances of the highest caliber for the widest possible audience. It supports its mission by presenting concerts; recording, commissioning and performing new choral works; and educating audiences, students, and the general public in the appreciation and history of choral music.
