New York Choral Artists (Choir)
Founded: New York, USA
New York Choral Artists (= NYCA), a professional chorus founded by Joseph Flummerfelt, has been heard with the New York Philharmonic in recent seasons performing repertoire ranging from Tippett’s A Child of Our Time to Mozart’s Requiem. Among the memorable collaborations with the New York Philharmonic was the concert on September 20, 2001, of Brahms’s Ein deutsches Requiem, commemorating the events of September 11, which was nationally broadcast on both television and radio. The NYPA opened the New York Philharmonic’s 2002-03 subscription season performing the world premiere of John Adams’s On the Transmigration of Souls, commissioned by the New York Philharmonic with Lincoln Center’s Great Performers. Other highlights of the NYCA’s history include participation in the 1995 New York Philharmonic’s concert celebrating the 50th anniversary of the United Nations, a televised performance of the 1986 Statue of Liberty Concert in Central Park, and televised performances marking the 100th anniversary of Carnegie Hall and the hall’s reopening following its renovation. The NYCA last performed with the New York Philharmonic in February 2004 in Haydn’s The Creation, conducted by Lorin Maazel.
