Coming Soon: Rehearsal Schedule

Morrie Brand and Adam Gillespie

As we look ahead to Summer 2026, we are pleased to share that Adam Gillespie will serve as the ensemble’s next conductor beginning this summer.

Adam approaches this role with great respect for the foundation that retiring director Morrie Brand has built and with genuine excitement about the ensemble’s future. Together, we are committed to honoring the traditions that have defined this group while also exploring dynamic repertoire and new artistic opportunities.

Coming soon, we will provide additional details about the upcoming season, including rehearsal schedules, program themes, and any structural updates.
