WELCOME! Thank you for visiting the Wheatland Chorale on the web. Please explore our web site to learn more about us.

Some of us have recently returned from a once-in-a-lifetime tour to Switzerland, Austria, and Germany, where we sang four concerts. These included a brief noonday concert in the magnificent Salzburg Cathedral. The all-acapella repertoire for this tour included many selections from our Spring 2008 concert list, at right.

Soon we will be preparing for our 2008-2009 season. Our Glad Tidings! concerts in December will feature Vivaldi's Gloria, with instrumental accompaniment. We will also join forces November with the children's choirs at the Pennsylvania Academy of Music for a set of open workshops and the premier of a work by well-known composer and conductor Bob Chilcott. We'll be presenting our Spring 2008 repertoire again at two locations (see the list of pieces on the right and visit our schedule to learn more). If you are interested in more chorale details, our newsletter archive is a good place to start.

Since its founding in 1987 by Artistic Director Robert J. Upton, the Wheatland Chorale has earned a reputation as one of Pennsylvania's premier choral ensembles. The singers, all volunteers, are selected through audition, and travel from throughout Lancaster, Berks, and York counties and beyond for rehearsals in Lancaster. The Chorale is named after the Wheatland Hills neighborhood where Mr. Upton lived in Lancaster at the time the group was formed.

Look for concert announcements and profiles of our concerts in local publications, including the Intelligencer Journal, the New Era, the Merchandiser, and the Reading Eagle.
