About New York Philharmonic Chorus     Malcolm J. Merriweather,     Chorus Director

The New York Philharmonic Chorus is the Philharmonic’s resident vocal ensemble, heard regularly at David Geffen Hall in repertory that spans new commissions and cornerstone works. Under Chorus Director Malcolm J. Merriweather, it has been a central presence in performances led by Gustavo Dudamel, including premieres by composer David Lang and programs pairing Stravinsky with contemporary voices like Ellen Reid. Collaborations with soloists such as Fleur Barron and Davóne Tines place the chorus inside the orchestra’s main artistic projects. Its sound favors precision and textual focus over sheer weight.
