Via Nova Chorale Sarasota

Benjamin Britten and Anton Dvořák sit beside American composers past and present on the program that Via Nova Chorale has titled VOICES OF THE PEOPLE: America’s 250th Year. Choir and string orchestra share the stage at First Presbyterian Church on Oak Street, and the program is built around freedom, opportunity and expression, ideals the chorale presents as especially relevant now. The concert falls in the group’s 17th season, with Steven Phillips as artistic director for 2026–27. The chorale describes its mission as using music to bring people together as one human family.
