In a year when we almost lost the GALA Choruses organization, Coro Allegro shines a light on the shared devotion between GALA and its member choruses through the prism of our journey of mutual inspiration and evolution. Join us for music and stories from composers, conductors, singers, and LGBTQ+ advocates on the impact of Festival, as we honor the GALA board and staff with the Daniel Pinkham Award and celebrate raising our voices together for LGBTQ+ rights worldwide.
Guests include: Robin Godfrey (GALA Choruses), Jane Ramseyer Miller (GALA Choruses and One Voice Mixed Chorus); Kenneth Fuchs (Grammy-award winning composer), Eric Banks (composer and Director of the Esoterics), Reginald L. Mobley, (countertenor & co-author of the Black Voices Matter pledge), John Abdallah Wambere (Founder of AmeriGanda), Janson Wu (Executive Director of GLAD, GLBTQ Legal Advocates and Defenders), Craig Coogan (Executive Director of the Boston Gay Men’s Chorus). Michael Tate (GALA Choruses and the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus). Sam Brinton (The Trevor Project and Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, DC), and other alumni and members of Coro Allegro.
