Welcome to Schola Cantorum!  Schola Cantorum, founded in 1964 by the late Royal Stanton, is one of the largest and most successful choral groups in the San Francisco Bay Area, with 100 singers representative of communities throughout the area.  Under the baton of Music Director Gregory Wait, Schola Cantorum continues to present dynamic performances of masterpieces from the choral repertoire, new works by major composers and music from diverse musical traditions.  Schola Cantorum continues its commitment to choral education and participation through its very successful Messiah Sings, Summer Sings, Broadway Sing-Along and the new Christmas Carol Sing-Along. 

Over the years, Schola Cantorum has gained a reputation for the quality of its performances and the eclectic nature of its programming.  Whether presenting the great choral masterpieces of the last three centuries, newly-commissioned works and arrangements, traditional works or music from around the globe, Schola Cantorum strives for excellence in performances.  We welcome qualified new singers of every cultural tradition (see "Sing with Us") and we encourage everyone to experience the joy of singing, whether as a member of the chorus or at one of our many sing-along events.

Despite the current economic situation, Schola Cantorum is fiscally sound, thanks to the generosity of our many donors.   If you would like to support the work that we do and keep vibrant choral arts in Silicon Valley, please take a look at our "Support Us" page and become a Schola Cantorum donor.   You can also purchase tickets to our concerts and other events and get all the information you need about our season on our "Calendar" page.  We have three commercial CD recordings and you can purchase these on our site, and if you would like to get in touch with us, we welcome your questions and comments ("Contact Us").

Thank you for your interest in Schola Cantorum!  We look forward to seeing you at one of our concerts or sing-along events in the coming season.
