CHORAL FELLOWSHIPS
In 2003 the Vernon Chorale began offering Choral Fellowships, a unique program for full time music students enrolled in Connecticut colleges and universities which includes a stipend for a season of participation with the Chorale. Today, we continue to offer this fellowship to a handful of gifted music students and provide them with an opportunity to participate in exceptional performances at the community level. The Choral Fellow experience includes introduction into the challenging world of non-profit, including first-hand insights into development and programming. Many Choral Fellows continue with the Chorale as full-fledged members after graduation or are selected for the Conducting Fellowship.
“Not only does the Vernon Chorale create amazing music you want to listen to, but the group creates a room that you want to be in. They create an environment that feels like a once in a lifetime experience and that you just cannot miss. It is truly an honor to work with such an incredible team of musicians.”
– Grace Michalowski, Choral Fellow 2022-2024
