Our Mission:

our story
In 2014, as a relative newcomer to Baltimore, I organized our first musicale at the First Christian Church in Roland Park. I wanted to create an opportunity for artists and music lovers to come together in an informal setting to share music and poetry.
Because I couldn’t possibly fit everyone in my living room, these concerts were the next best thing!
Over the last ten years, we have presented more than 100 unique programs of art songs, opera, musical theater, and vocal chamber music throughout Baltimore, Washington, D.C. and Silver Spring, Maryland.
I am proud of the community we have built, and I look forward to continuing this work-–uplifting, inspiring, and connecting people through song.

While Moore is furthering the music community in Baltimore, she is also enriching the sense of community in the city.”

“My very first concert several years ago was thrilling. I had no idea there was a group keeping the art song tradition alive. There were selections of songs I had never heard before–and all in a more traditional harmonic language.”
–Priscilla Huffman, audience member
Experience the power and beauty of the human voice, and join us for a memorable and moving afternoon of music, poetry, and community.
