Celebrating its 44th season, the Hartford Chorale has become the primary symphonic chorus of central Connecticut, especially in its critically acclaimed collaborations with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra. Other collaborations of note include performances with the New Haven, New Britain, and Hartt School Symphony Orchestras.

The Hartford Chorale is composed of 175 men and women, mostly from central Connecticut, with others traveling from Massachusetts and Rhode Island for weekly rehearsals in West Hartford. The Chorale offers talented and experienced singers opportunities to study and perform at a professional level, while internship programs make it possible for gifted high school and college musicians to rehearse and perform with the Chorale and Connecticut orchestras.
