Composer-In-Residence

The Choral Artists are committed to fine choral music of all periods and cultures. We have a special commitment to fostering the choral tradition through the support of living composers -- both those with recognized, published works and new, emerging choral talent.

Our Composer-In-Residence Program is a way to recognize and encourage choral composers. The goal of our Composer-In-Residence program is to increase the visibility and support of the many talented and prolific choral composers living in the San Francisco Bay Area whose works we have performed -- to the delight of our audiences -- since the inception of the Choral Artists.

2008 Composer-in-Residence, Robin Estrada

Award-winning Bay Area composer, Robin Estrada, will write a new work for each of this season’s programs. His compositions have been recognized in his native Philippines, in Japan, Taiwan and Australia, as well as in the USA. We are delighted to welcome him as our 2008 Composer-in-Residence.
