Kansas City Chorale

The Kansas City Chorale is a professional 24-voice chorus conducted by Charles Bruffy. They perform an annual concert series in Kansas City and a concert in Phoenix each year with their sister choir, the Phoenix Bach Choir, also conducted by Mr. Bruffy. During his tenure as conductor, the chorus has achieved international acclaim. Mr. Bruffy, renowned for his fresh interpretations of both traditional and new music, was noted by the New York Times as an apparent successor to the late Robert Shaw.The Chorale has produced 9 recordings, three of them with the Phoenix Bach Choir. In 2007 their recording of Alexander Grechaninov's "Passion Week" was nominated for four GRAMMY® awards, and won for Best Engineered Classical Album.
