Celebrating RCS’ 125th Season:

Join us May 2-3, 2025, in Cambridge!

RCS alums and friends–you are invited to the RCS 125th Anniversary Celebration on Friday, May 2, and Saturday, May 3, 2025, in Cambridge, MA. Please join us for any or all of the following:

Friday, May 2, 2025: RCS concert in Sanders Theatre at 8pm, preceded by a brief social gathering for RCS singers, alums, and friends. 

The RCS season will culminate in the May 2 stand-alone RCS 125th Anniversary Concert as part of Harvard’s ARTS FIRST Festival. RCS will premiere a commissioned work from Chen Yi, a composer who has been described as a strong advocate for new music, American composers, Asian composers, and women in music. RCS will also premiere an RCSF-funded commission from the Beverly Taylor Fund for Soprano-Alto Choral Music, by Dale Trumbore. Trumbore is a female composer based in Southern California who is passionate about setting to music poems, prose, and found text by living writers.

Saturday, May 3, 2025: All-day RCS reunion celebration of the 125th anniversary, including a conducted sing of RCS music across the eras, participation by past musical directors, food, drink, and socializing. Details forthcoming!
